Amsoil ATD change
Noobie here. I recently acquired a gently driven '98 convertible with 6spd and 41K miles. I found the shifting balky and somewhat obstinate on occasion. Yesterday I drained the old fluid (and discouragingly did not get out 3.5ish quarts...) and replaced it with a touch under 3.5 quarts of Amsoil ATD (thanks Brad at C66 Racing!). WOW, what a difference! Smooth shifts, and no resistance anywhere. I suspect it will even get better over time. Changing stock fluid seems to me a no brainer upgrade to any 6spd.
