Yup. Drips a bit.
Then it somehow gets on the extractors and smokes.

from memory i think they hold about 2.1L or something.. In my lane when i first put the manual in i ran auto trans juice but am now running a Penrite Extra Light Manual Trans Oil and i can say its made a killer difference the box is so much smoother even when cold the oil is designed especially for cars that are supposed to run ATF in the manuals

Oow with ya spiggot did ya get the open bearing type (kinda looks like just a wheel bearing about $4) or the Big heavy case one (about $20) coz the big heavy case ones last a whole lot longer and do the job far better they are they type reccomended by ford... ive used both types and prefur the big one

Thats my 2 cents
Cheers Dan
