Checked both, Bentley & Owners Manual and the correct final drive fluid is 10-30w. In the owners manual. 1.3 us quarts in final drive and the correct level should be 1/4" below side fill hole. Automatic fluid (Ford Type) is 8.5 us quarts. You'll need to check a posting on procedure of removing the fluid hose and adding, while draining from the hose to completely flush the torque converter. I remember changing my first automatic Saab, final drive with 80-90W. What I drained out was definitely 80w-90. The Bentley Manual says to use in the final drive, > Sae 80 or 75< >and "Alternate grade of oil is 10w-30<. My thoughts are, Winter weather/ 10w-30, Summer weather/ 80w-75. Genaral rule I go by on high milage Saab's is, What ever was drained out is what I replaced. 80w-75 always smells like gear lube and 10w-30 smells like, WELL ! 10w-30. So! here's your choices. I perfer gear lube in the final drive!
