I worked at the local govie bus workshops in the 80's and several brands of buses ran a Wilson semi auto box with a simple fluid flywheel coupling (like a torque converter). This oil didn't circulate with the g/box oil and you had to change it separately. The lube guys would never change this oil during a service, and when you drained it during a G/box change it was worse than a sewer or café grease trap. We would dry reaching 'till we could get rid of it. The stench hung around the w/shop for a couple of days.
