AMSOIL Transmission fluid recommendations for Cars and Light Duty Trucks
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Synchromesh Transmission Fluid (MTF) is a premium quality synthetic lubricant designed to surpass the most demanding lubrication requirements of manual transmissions and transaxles where non-extreme pressure fluids are used.
MTF protects gears and bearings in extreme temperatures. It outperforms conventional oils and delivers outstanding performance from -40°F to 300°F. It maximizes energy efficiency and resists the effects of heat, oxidation, sludge and varnish deposits.
Unlike its mineral oil counterparts, MTF prevents the thinning effects of mechanical shear for stable viscosity, superior film strength and anti-wear performance. It protects against rust, keeps seals soft for long life, and is compatible with brass synchros for smooth synchromesh shift quality.
IDEAL FOR MANY GENERAL MOTORS, CHRYSLER, HONDA and OTHER VEHICLES
AMSOIL Manual Synchromesh Transmission Fluid is a higher quality, lower cost replacement for multiple vehicle manufacturer branded products. This premium synthetic formulation provides enhanced anti-wear protection and lasts longer in service. MTF exceeds the performance requirements of both manual transmissions and transaxles.
EXCELLENT FOR SERVICE CENTERS
AMSOIL Manual Synchromesh Transmission fluid is a versatile transmission lubricant. It reduces inventory needs, is readily available and is cost effective compared to vehicle manufacturer branded products.
Performance Features
• Reduces friction, heat and wear
• Superior high temperature stability
• Resists heat, oxidation, acid buildup and varnish
• Improves cold weather shifting
APPLICATIONS
Recommended for automotive and light truck applications that require synchromesh transmission fluid. Applications include manual transmissions and transaxles such as New Venture NV T350, NV 1500, NV 2550, NV 3500, NV 3550, NV 5600, and Tremec T4, T5, T18, T56, T176, TKO500, TKO600, TR 3450 and TR 3550. Replaces MTF-94 fluid for Land Rover, MG, and Mini Cooper. Replaces Honda Genuine MTF fluid for manual transaxles and Texaco MTX fluid. Not for use in engines or wet clutch applications.
