C Corphish : 83 RX-7 Gsl, 2000 Mazda Protege LX, 2011 Mazda3 Sport i Aug 3, 2018 #1 So Ive done quite a bit of reading and cant quite understand if people are running full penzoil synchromesh or 50:50 with 75-90? Im for sure using penzoil cause my work stocks it fairly cheap I just dont know how much?

P pcb The Diagram Dude : 2002 MP5 Aug 3, 2018 #2 I've never heard of mixing it. I think you should go with straight synchromesh. It works great when it's really cold out.... No grinding of gears. Last edited: Aug 3, 2018

P pcb The Diagram Dude : 2002 MP5 Aug 3, 2018 #4 You're welcome. When I had gear oil in the tranny I would grind every gear for at least twenty minutes in the winter until it warmed up.
