Thanks all, drained, and refilled my gearbox with Redline MTL. Perhaps it's just wishful thinking, but it feels as if it shifts smoother. Still have to ease it into 2nd, but it definitely feels better.

Last time I changed mine, I had it in my head that it would do no good. But, I was caught by surprise the first several shifts on the first drive because they went smoother than they had been. I suppose I thought that I hadn't driven enough to have degraded the fluid, etc. but I was wrong. I'll be doing mine more often, now.
