I run Shell 40wt. It's hot here and I have experienced similar shifting...I might try some gear oil.

Too hot to drive much in the summer, the M50 and the dropside are projects. The ‘70 (5” stack) is my driver. Went and started them all up early to circulate their fluids this morning before it got hot.

Got up early to beat the heat, woke up the '70 and jumped the M50 with it to circulate it's fluids. (Starts better with the fuel shutoff handle in, pranked myself). Fired up the Dropside and let it run a bit. Need to install it's water pump. Took the '70 to drop off a customer's wheels at the...

Just went through this on my M50. Should move about 3/16". It may move the same amount without the button, but just not move high enough...?

Very Cool

Been in them recently. There should be a one way check valve on the end of the fitting that tees off to supply the flame heater.

...heck, my 7 or 8 deuces are already helping out the guys who only have one little jeep...
