Frank, are you talking about your transmission? If so, which one do you have? 75W140 is really too thick for a manual trans. The syncros like something quite a bit lighter, like 75W90 or even 5W30 syncromesh oil.
I will take exception to this. Back in 1962, when my car was new, and the 4 speed trans didn't want to shift on the very cold mornings in New Hampshire, the dealership changed out the original factory lube for Kendall 80-90-140 three star gear lube, and added 2 q ounce tubes of Lubriplate molybdenum disulfide. The transmission never gave me another morning of not shifting problems. They got the information about the lube change from the Boston Zone office.
Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level, then beat you with experience.
