hey i got a question, what type or weight of gear oil do i use on my diff? and what do you guys recomend? and another thing, when i drive my 95 240 i put it into gear, and then i drive. but lets say that i am driving, and without down shifting, i just give it more gas. when i do, the tach drops down a couple hundred RPMs, and then it jumps up. now you can hear the engine reving up likes it suppose to. at the same time the speed is still going up? could it be the clutch? transmission? diff? has anyone had this problem? or do i need to bleed my clutch? and if i do have to do that how do i do it? as of right now i have not bought a manual yet. help me out guys!

if you are riding along in gear (especially at lower rpms) and just stomp the pedal, it is very likely you will bog for a second while your engine catches up with you . If it worse than this you could have problems.
