Changed the trans fluid yesterday. It looks like the differential has no drain, so when I change that I'll probably drop the back cover and make sure it is clean inside and get any residue off the bottom. Looks like they used RTV for a gasket, I'll pick up some from the current owner of my old shop today. Also top off the tank for the first time with the cap installed the whole time. The trans magnetic drain plug had no large debris, just an accumulation of paste in 125k miles so that is a good sign. It does seem to shift easier. Probably the original fluid with a slight accumulation of bronze from the synchros.
