Reply to "Procedure to break in rebuilt transaxle"

Stan, I ran and still run Valvoline 75W90 Synthetic. Available at most any FLAPS. Shifts nicer when cold IMHO. I tried some really expensive stuff, can't remember the name, but I wouldn't recommend it so the name doesn't matter. Went out to the garage, it IS Red Line Synthetic High Shock-Load. Meh. Waste of hard-earned money.

I truly think your trans is new and tight and will loosen up with use. The CB Rhino nosecone mount transmits noise/vibration, but keeps the trans where it's supposed to be. 

Break-in? Anything cheap from NAPA or Tractor Supply. It's only gonna be in there for two tanks of gas. Dump it HOT, let it drain for a day.
