Olive Oyl

Thanks Guys! I know how to drive it! Have been for four years and want to go for more long distance travels. So I want to go through and change out all the fluids because I have no idea when they were last changed. I have read and reread this page to better familiarize myself with the transmission,http://www.allpar.com/mopar/m6.html but was still uncertain about the fluid coupler! Thanks for clarifying that for me! I know mine does not operate correctly because the wires are decayed off the solenoid! However I discovered you can trick the trans into shifting manually! I always start in low and at about 10mph I pull neutral and then put it back in low position, and it bumps up. then from there I pull it into high and do the same thing to grab high overdrive! Works every time and she cruises highway speeds no problem! I just want to get it working correctly now that I have the fund to do it!

No, I did not do a search. Also, am I correct to understand that while my trans is the Gyro, I still have the fluid drive coupler? And my local parts store says the 10W is not available, just what they say is an equivalent, but I don't trust them. This has to be the most confusing transmission I have had to deal with!

Hello all, I am new and apologies if this has already been asked. After reviewing 10 pages I gave up and figured I would just ask! My service manual says to use sae 10-w motor oil only. I am not certain what fluid to use as a modern day equivalent? The parts store says AW 32 hydraulic oil. Doesn't seem right to me to use a hydraulic fluid where the book calls for a motor oil! Any solid recommendations appreciated!
