Had a '69 Chevy K20 that had a broken tooth in a gear, so instead of filling it with 90 weight, I filled it with STP, which is 200 weight. Smooth as silk when it was warm out. First off, rarely used 1st (Granny) gear, unless transfer case was 4L, and that would have the engine turning about 6,000 RPMs and would be doing about 3 MPH, but could walk its way out of stuck while idling. So gears used were 2, 3, 4. Try shifting a tranny filled with STP when gets below 20 degrees out. At that temp, 200 weight STP becomes superglue mixed with more superglue. I needed the workout anyway. By the time forced the stick from 2 over and up to 3, lost so much speed had force it back over and down to 2 and start all over. About the first ten miles down the road would be shifting from 2 back to 2, and then from 2 back to 2 many more times. Come to think of it, I think it might have been 2 that had the broken tooth in the first place. Eventually warmed up enough could get through the gears. I never sould have sold that truck. 292 inline six, and Dana 70's front and back.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
