    What type of oil has anyone tried in their Lenco drive,Bruno or Quicker drives?
    Has any one tried any other grade of oil other than ATF 2D or ATF Dextron 3?
    I was looking at trying TD 10W -30 trans oil to see if helped with converter slip and temp.

    I've tried a few different fluids, fully syn motor cycle trans fluid 30 and 40 didn't help slippage, penrite 30 trans fluid, standard dextron 3 all ran basically the same. If you have excessive slip and heat your converter is the problem!
    I am using trans max Z made by castrol and it works fine and is basically the same fluid as mobil 1 syn ATF.
