Valve adjustment will not get done at this tech day. there are very few of us that know how to do it and it is time consuming. Occassionally Coral Doc sponsors valve adjustment tech days at his place. He is definately the expert.

I did this not too long ago at RatedS2k's house and I used Honda MTF. Some others who did the same thing that day used the GM SynchroMesh. If I remember correctly, the GM stuff was hard to find at local dealerships...

For diff fluid, a lot of us like LE607.

This makes me so happy I could cry! Jerseygirl, you represent our female ownership well. Not many would remember what fluids to use. Also, believe me fellows this lady can drive also! Way to represent!

Jerseygirl speaks the truth. I use GM Synchromesh in my tranny, my local dealership in Lake Worth always has plenty of stock. In my diff I use Mobil 1 differential oil synthetic, any local AutoZone has it. Gray bottle with Blue tip, I believe.

Good luck!
