Gearbox Question

Can anyone tell me if there are any T25 Gearboxes that can NOT be fitted to a 1.9 IY D powered T25. So may different units around, I can see all the ratios and know what I want and don't want, just need to make sure they all fit physically.

1Y dipstick

How is the dipstick tube held in to the 1Y engine. The old one in the CS engine pulled out very easily but the one in the 1Y engine is very tight. s it just pushed in or is there more to it than that? How have people got it out?

Its about time I serviced my van. I've left it far to long.

First Question: What do people recommend in the way of oil.
Its a 2.1 dj 1990. high mileage.

Second question: Apart from all the usual service bits is there anything I should do while im at it that may not be so obvious.

Thanks

I thought that would be the case. All of the rear half of the linkage is brand new. I think Its probably just a spline out. Will keep playing tho

Gear linkage set up

just helped a friend fit a recon 5 speed box and recon all the gear linkage. All ok but having a bit of trouble setting up the linkage. We can get all gears just about so cant be far off but 2/3 are a bit iffy. Tried following the manual but it seemed miles out.

Any advice appreciated
