Mike, After a lengthy discussion with the guy who rebuilt my transmission and probably knows more about geaboxes, overdrives and diffs than anyone I've ever met on the planet, he suggested that I try splitting the difference with non-foaming 50w racing oil. I'm going to pick some up from him this morning and give it a go. If that improves things, I'll leave it at that, but I'm not adverse to trying 30w non detergent as well, or the Redline stuff that Joe Curry recommended.

II Hi Jeff, I'm not saying you should use this on your O/D but the one I bought rebuilt from Quantum Mechanics recommends putting straight 30W non-detergent oil in the O/D tranny. He feels the 80/90 weight is too heavy for the O/D to work properly. Of course mine a single rail I believe, for a 1978 Spit.
