Hello,I was hoping one of the members knows what kind of transmission oil to use in my 1949 Bendix.I put in 80-90 gear oil which I thought was correct but now the cylinder turns too fast.When I drain the oil out then it works fine.Thanks. | ||

Don't most washing machines use straight 30 weight non-detergent non-synthetic engine oil for the transmissions? | ||

These machines have a solenoid that switches the gears between the low tumbling speed and the higher spinning speed. Perhaps the solenoid is week and the 80w oil is preventing it from switching from high to low? I'd try flushing the tranny out with ATF and then try a 30 weight non detergent motor oil. Then maybe back to the 80w90 gear oil.
