Would it be worthwhile to run some cheap gear oil thru a manual transmission (500-1000 miles) before putting in the good stuff to flush out as much particles as possible? A magnetic plug will catch iron, but not brass from synchros. And does anybody know how big these particles are anyway ? (microns) |

Drain it and refill it with a good GL4 gear oil. GL5 gear oil will damage the brass inside the gearbox (which is what syncros are made of) |
