Sorry to hi-jack, but how much fluid does the tranny take? I think Clarks-Garage says 2.75 quarts, is this correct?
And has anyone tried adding Lucas Oil Stabilizer to take up some lash in their worn tranny? I know most here will say not to touch Lucas, but I've been using it in my motor for a while and want to try it in the tranny before I replace it.

It should be 2 qts. A technical service bulletin came out and lowered it to reduce heat build up in the transmission due to splashing.
M/T - Lowered Oil Level
Subject: Transmission Oil Level

Part Identifier

With the introduction of the 85/2 Model 944, the oil level in the manual transmission was lowered. This reduces the operating temperature of the transmission because of less oil splash.
The factory fill is now only 4 U.S. pints of gear lube instead of 5.2 U.S. pints.
When checking the transmission oil level, make sure the oil level is approximately 6 mm below the filler bore, since the oil filler plug position has not been changed.
