I keep my ford F-250 Mazda 5 speed quiet by putting in a Bottle of STP about 4 times a year prior to a 1000 mile trip w/ my 35 ft. Jayco 5th Wheel.Trailer is a Designer Series about 11m Lb.Tranmission has 216,000 Miles on it and is noisy at low speed when accelerating.It started this Rattling Sound at about 100m Miles and seems to get no worse as time and miles accumulate. If it goes I probably would not be surprised and I am fully prepared to do a pull down when that happens. These Transmissions are a no brainer to fix. I can pull down the Clutch and Pressure Plate and have it replaced in a day so the Transmission is no big deal.One reason I keep this old Truck is it is used less than 5m miles a year and it is easy to work on, something that can not be said for the late models on the Dealers Lots.Mine is a 1989 w/460 and 5 speed manual,full floating 1 ton Rear Axle.
