Hi Dave,

I would use a shop manual for the year of the transmission NOT the car.
The A833-OD never came from the factory in 1965.  The shop manual for my
1984 RAM truck with a factory A833-OD says to use automatic transmission
fluid unless you get too much noise (then run gear oil).  I have been
running type A in my truck in Florida with no problems.  

Also, if anyone is looking for an A833-OD the junk yard down here has a
couple of them. 

Regards,
Ken

My '65 Shop manual says:

"Fill the transmission with [7.5] pints of Multi-Purpose Gear Oil SAE
140.
If shift effort becomes extremely high during cold weather,
Multi-Purpose
Gear Oil SAE 80 or 90 should be used. Automatic Transmission Fluid Type
"A,"
Suffix "A" may also be used in extremely cold climates."

I plan to run 80w-90 gear oil in my A833-OD when the time comes, but I'm
down south where only freezes a couple days each year.
