finding a lube that likes an old box is not easy.
thick
thin
and syn?
are the 3 choices, which works best in an old worn box, is trial and error, short of new syncrho' rings'
the box heats to 180f , from the engine mating,,, or near.
so it may shift great hot.
if reverse grinds the clutch is dragging, this is the canary gear , early warning, of that.
balky shifts are synrhos slow to do the speed change (RPM) to shift the sycrho must match speeds then the dogs jump in super easy.
maybe some one run it low and lube, and the yellow metal there wore faster.
those silly top real rubber RAIL shift plugs wrecked many box, by leaking out lube;.
good luck to you!!!
