Last Fall on our way back to Virginia from Alaska, I stopped to see Daryl
Christensen at AA Transaxle and had him replace my gear box fluid.  After
arriving home, I sent him an email and asked what he had used so I could
replace it with the same stuff the next time it needed replacing.

His response is below,

Glad you made it home in one piece. Long and winding trip but worth every
mile of it�

The oil I used was Mobil 1 Delvac 75/90 synthetic and it really is some
magic stuff it seems.
