Default Re: Clutch Adjustment/Transmission Oil

Thanks, Big Hammer, I lube the car regularly, once a year and never drive over 500 miles between servicing.

I needed to put the car in my barn before we left. I had drained the Thurban 250 fluid so I refilled it with Valvoline 80W-85W-90 so I could drive it there. To my surprise it shifted (double shifting) and it works better than it did before I adjusted the clutch. I always believed that the heavier oil makes for easier shifting but that’s not so in my case (go figure). I’m 86 years old and still learning.

Thanks again to all of you, Robert
