RE: ATF +4 or gear oil ?
Yeah the Neon has fibre faces on the synchros which is why they use ATF+4 in the manual trans. If you use gear oil you will burn out the synchros in short order. Can you say can't find 'em grind 'em? As far as Mopar is concerned ATF+4 is also the perferred lube for the powersteering. If it can lube a trans it can keep up with a PowerSteering pump. Beside the new ATF+4 is synthetic so I have read.
