So I was doing my transmission fluid change right now, and i accidentally grabbed a bottle of motor oil, not paying attention and dumped like half a quart, am I screwed now?

Can I just flush it and put transmission fluid in and be ok? God I am a newb!

 

Can i fill the rest with tranny fluid and go tomorrow somewhere and get a flush?

 

So I did a quick search and Royal Purples website says if you put 10w40 in it should be ok

http://www.royalpurple.com/transmission-chart-wu.html

Manual Transmission / Transaxle (API GL-4 or GL-5: 75W90, 80W90) arrowMax-Gear 75W90

Manual Transmission / Transaxle (API GL-3: 75W90, 80W90) arrowSAE 10W40 / XPR 10W40

I have no idea. I only put a half a quart in.

I didn't put Royal Purple, but i figured it is general sort of :/



This is crazy Redlines website says the same thing

you should be fine, as long as the rest if gear oil. just go asap and change it out.

 

Damnit! I was hoping not to waste anymore money. Ok thanks!

 

I would change it out two or three times.

 

Ditto..I would grab some cheap *** Transmission oil..flush it out like 3 times...then use the good ole stuff..

 

lets hope other forums dont find this lol

 

move along... nothing to see here.....

 

dont work on your tranny by yourself ever again

 

hahah, damn highmove! lolols. I hope everything works out man

 

always lube your tranny correctly!
