    does anyone know which brand of tranny oil is simpson's nuclear waste green (similar to radiator coolant)?

    i've noticed a decent sized puddle pooling under the tranny case this morning.

        i know but oddly enough, it hasn't leaked anything today after being driven around town for the better part of the afternoon.

        intermittent leak? how is that possible?

            My recommendation is if you don't know when it was changed last, and you don't know what the specs of the oil currently in there are, I would change it, and start fresh. Knowing your oil change intervals is imperitive to a long lasting rover.

              agreed. the PO stated all fluids were changed and topped in the middle of this year (2010).

              but i'm sure a fresh start wouldn't hurt.

              who's putting what in their late SIIa 88's?
