I was going to get one for my 80 for when we do our trip around Australia towing a van around, but my friendly Castrol man has me thinking otherwise, and I'll tell you why.
He recommends I put a high temp synthetic in such as transmax-II, reason being. oil coolers will cause the trans to run at a lower temp than it's meant to, which isn't good and chances are I will not be heating the oil beyond it's spec and even if I do go beyond the limit, check it weekly for colour and smell, 'if' it is smelling burnt either change it more frequently, or add a cooler (last resort)
Just wanted to share.
Thanks.
