mobil 1 FTL... example: getting gear oil, every brand was $4 and change per quart, then mobile one was 16 DOLLARS for one damn quart of gear oil
Come to think of it... you don't want ATF... ATF = automatic transmission fluid, no?? and you have a manual?

read the side of the t-56 and T5's too. you use ATF Dextron or mercron (SP). Drain it, pull the shifter dump it down the shifter hole until it overflows out the fill hole. 3.8 quarts needed.

no, you keep the fill hole unplugged and fill from the top until it flows out the fill hole. You can pump it in through the fill hole, but its a pain in the ass. You need to pump it in or rig a tube to get in there.
Gravity FTW!!!!!!!

**** if i know, i dont even know whats in there besides clutch and flywheel 
it only does it if you go from a dead stop, if you slip the clutch from "higher" rpm or a steep hill. otherwise its normal - the problem is i dont like driving like a grandma off the line shohld i take that POS to the shop again? cuz i dunno what it is...
