    Does anyone know where to buy this? It is the oil for the manual tranny in a Delorean?

    Thanks in advance,

    I thought the Delorean required a flux capacitor...

    This is the special oil to keep the flux capacitor cool. DUH!

    OP: you'd be better to post this on a Deloran board!

    Seriously, I think you're looking for GL5 (five) oil for your transaxle. You can use a number of 80W-90 fluids available from quite a few sources for this. Do some searches on "trans fluid" or the like and you'll see a list of things to avoid, IIRC Valvoline Synthetic was on the list, but Mobil 1 is OK because there is no yellow metal in our trans. Redline NS mixed with a little of their normal 75W90 is popular, too. You can also call Agip USA and order the factory specified brand if you so desire.
