mixed transmission fluid
I was picking up some trans fluid for my 98 ranger (manual trans with 150,000-ish miles) The dudes at pep boys suggested using 1 quart of
Royal Purple Synchromax and the rest mercon 5. Is this a good idea?

Re: mixed transmission fluid
Royal purple is a great lube. Some have use it in their transmissions but I don't know if it was synchromax or not.

Re: mixed transmission fluid
Sounds bizarre to mix it - just fill 'er up with RP. I love the stuff!
