I vote for Mobil 1 as the book says ATF why would you want to not use ATF?

The book also says to use oil with ratings that were obsolete 15-20yrs ago. Why not take advantage of progress in oil technology? MTL is a special lightweight oil that is specifically designed to be used in place of ATF in manual transmissions. Incidentally the MT90 is the equivalent to 75-90w gear oil for use in transmissions that spec that as lube. RT
