Drained and inspected the manual transmission gear lube; refilled with approx. 2.25 qts of Redline MTL.
The old gear lube was brownish and the drain plug magnet had a small amount of metal particles attached.
The transmission shifts noticeably better with the fresh Redline MTL gear lube.

I'm calling Sam's club to bitch about their $3.29 gas here. I got a membership for $8 during the" PutBidin price hike". They're gas is typically 30 cents cheaper a gallon.

Paid $2.92 at BJs (similar to Costco) here in S. Jacksonville, FL.
Typically BJs is 40 - 50 cents cheaper than the local GATE stations.

Dang just saw it on I-24 west bound on the way home Friday. Gas was $2.69 a gallon at the Mapco and I get $0.03 off automatically so that's $2.66 a gallon.

Probably top off in the morning on the way to work.

Tried running that flex fuel in my Silverado and went from 18mpg to 13mpg so the math tells me it’s the same price. My Silverado ran kinda strange on flex fuel, more seat of the pants get up and go, but when I started the truck it would rev to 2000 then drop to almost zero. Took several tanks to clear the alcohol out of it.

And some valve stem replacements for trail repairs that can stay in-

Thanks to @Plumber1 a while back for posting- the red ones won’t clear my beadlocks so I got these-

Good piece of mind.
