74 1.8 with original transmission.
What is the best fluid to use - either top off or replace? It now has a Swepco, though don’t recall which one (thought I wrote it in my notes but can’t find it). A small seal leak, so like to top it off at the start of each driving season. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

I run 85/90 gear oil. I used to run Swepco, but I found that stuff would leak out of the vent on the top of the transmission. So you end up losing gear oil even with all the seals intact.
