[OT] Synthetic Tranny Fluid

[Bruce]

Ya know how that stuff cold flows so darn well.
Trouble is that it can completely drain off a gears, etc.  Then the exposed
metal rusts.
So long as your continually using the vehicle may not be too much of an
issue.
I like dead dynosaur stuff  for lubing things
