Pardon me for being bluunt, but screwing around with wrong fluids is NOT going to help anything in a gearbox with bad sychros. If they're worn out they're worn out, and only a rebuild is going to help.

Plenty of used car dealers put sawdust in transmissions because it will hide problems--for a short time. But it will never fix them. Same thing for using the wrong fluid. It can't help much, and it can't help for long. ATF might swell some leaking seals to stop leaks...but it can't rebuild worn parts.

Original owner, 1985 Toyota Corolla GT-S in the US of A. Will trade for a Cadillac-Gage V150 or a Ford GT44.
