    Per the link, Redline oil is safe:

    "Safe for brass synchros, as it lacks the reactive sulfurs found in most GL-5 oils that cause damage"

    You're right we may have to agree to disagree. And no I don't take anything personally on the internet. Not everyone likes the way some vehicles shift with an "accumulator" as you call it and some people like it. Doesn't mean it needs to be removed for everyone. I'm just stating the practical reasons to keeping it. I don't care either way. It's your truck and you assume all risks by removing it anyways. There's caveats to removing it is all I'm saying. Cheers. :cheers:

    My 2011 4L manual drives just like the other 3 older Toyota manuals I have owned, 2 had 300K on them. A thumbs up for some one to accurately explain how the accumulator works and why Toyota spent the money to install it! Hint brake fluid does not compress.
