hijack alert!
we need a "what our panel of experts say about... " section in our FAQs...
where the rescpected members of our little club post what brand/ weight of oil, tranny oil, how often to do particular mainenance items(ie valve adjust), options on ignitions and such... since we get these threads so often...
this way any of us can just pull up the FAQ and see "what would Jake do" or "what does Brad think about this... " we have plenty of people that are truly experts in these cars, their engines, etc... why not have a think tank for that info?! there are plenty of people on this board who's opinion on these things can be taken as gospel truth... Jake on Engines, James on Trannys, Z on pornograhic avatars...
btw, I totally agree with anthony... I run 20-50 synthetic in the engine, but dino gear oil in the tranny... 85w-90 IIRC (I can't remember, but it was the same wt. as swepco 201, but I didn't pay the premium price for the name "swepco")
