Many PDF readers allow you to search all PDFs in a folder. Dump the FSM PDFs in a folder and tell the reader to search there.

I used MT85/MT90 mix and it feels much better the before (32Kmiles). Swap it out for a lighter weight if you are not liking it, not all transmissions are exactly the same and you just may have gotten a bad batch. Not much else you can do except try again or deal with it.

I replaced my transmission fluid about a month ago with MT85 and noticed this exact stiffness right away. It's been driving me nuts but I just assumed this was normal. I have also noticed that once it is warmed up 1st to 2nd is very clunky. It bothers me to the point I am debating on switching back to factory fluid. i just passed 12k miles the other day and was not like this at all before the fluid change.

Change it to synthetic 75w90 of your choice. I use Amsoil.
