Can you use 50 weight oil instead of trans fluid in 1994 ranger 5 speed manual Mazda trans?
Your Ranger has the Mazda M5OD-R1 manual 5 speed. This is a top shift fully synchronized transmission which requires A/T fluid. This has a light duty aluminum case and has a rectangular shape casting ribs with a large top cover. The R-2 is known for leaking oil from a rubber plug in the top cover. You should replace the rubber plug with a steel Dorman cup plug PN# 555-108 or Dana PN#219-3052. You will need 3 plugs. These trannies often melt down due to the oil loss caused by these plugs. I would recommend you Install synthetic Transmission Fluid in this transmission. Synthetic fluid handles high temperatures and pressures better then conventional fluids. Don not use any oil! The hydraulic clutch, slave cylinder/throwout bearing is another item you should pay close attention to. After time, the slave cylinder fails to release the clutch completely. If you are having trouble shifting into 1st and reverse while stationary or if your truck creeps forward with the clutch pedal depressed the slave cylinder/throwout bearing is probably At Fault. Unfortunately there is no easy fix here as the transmission must be removed to replace the combination slave cylinder and throwout bearing.
