Do I mix Synchormesh? - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

I checked up and down like all the Sychromesh forums and couldn't find what is prob the simplest question. So when you do a tranny flush and want to put in Penzoil Synchro mesh... do you mix it at all with reg synthetic 75w-90 gear oil or is it all 2.5qt Synchromesh? For my 99 VR4 in case that matters. Thanks!

Just put in the synchromesh.

Well it seems thinner than 75w-90. Would that be bad since it get 100+ deg here 3 months out of the year?

Yes, it's pretty thin stuff. I run synchromesh in my tranny and Redline 75w-90 in my rear differential. Many people run synchromesh in all parts of the country - texas, socal, florida, arizona, you name it.

fwiw I bought Redline MTL & Redline MT90 to put in my tranny, but it's just sitting there ... the synchromesh is working so well I haven't had reason to switch it out.
