Swapped out 6MT fluid for Amsoil 75w-90 and used Amsoil Series 600 Dot 4 for the clutch.

Took her for a spirited drive today through some back roads, as a break from work. :-)

Did you notice anything different in shifting? Some have said the synthetics smooth it out some. I am waiting to do all the non engine fluids to this winter, with amsoil synthetics. Except brake and clutch to motul.

Yes, definitely smoother shifting after the fluid change. Got rid of a lot of the notchiness I'd felt initially.

I know people have differing opinions about Amsoil, Redline etc; but my pops lived by Amsoil fluids as a long haul truck driver, so I thought I'd keep that going.
