�mne: RE: [DeTomaso] ZF refill -- RED LINE OIL

I'm posting some advice I got from Red Line Oils Tech service about a 
year ago. Their MTL and MTL90 may work fine in our ZFs but they were not 
the product he recommended. Hope it clears up the Red Line Gear Oil 
choice for the ZF in a Pantera. I am starting with 2 1/2 litres of Red 
Line 75W90NS and a litre of Red Line 75W90. I'll adjust the mix by trial 
and error as required to get the best compromise between the 
requirements of the synchros and the posi clutch from that starting 
point. YMMV Barry Seib

FROM REF LINE OILS
"I recommend the 75W90NS in the Pantera because the gear lube is being 
used to lubricate both the transmission and the differential. The NS 
fluid doesn't have friction modifiers so isn't too slippery for the 
synchros and will allow good shiftability. If the transaxle uses a 
clutch type limited slip and excess chatter occurs when making a slow 
tight turn, then a slight amount of friction modifier could be added to 
the NS to reduce this, being aware that too much can effect the 
shiftability. The 75W90 contains 5% friction modifier and this could be 
too much for some synchros."
