LMFAO----How true is that???

Another reason that they smell so bad when you drain the oil out of them. PEE=YEW!!! And the old Posi-traction fluid was even worse.
 
So this past weekend I siphoned the oil out of the TVR's diff. A time consuming, messy and generally unpleasant job. But at least I now know I am not driving around in a car with 36 year old oil in the diff.

I think I'll look into investing in a good quality siphon device.

Thanks for everyone's response.
