Shoving sawdust in through the oil filler works better. . . . . .

You wiener, this is misleading information.
1. There are no oil filters on manual transmissions
2. Packing the gearbox with Rolled Oats works better

This used to be an old trick to quiet one down just long
enough to sell it. e.g. on a car that normally used
20 to 40 weight oil, stuff in some 90 to 120 weight
lube and unload it on a hot day, since it is gonna
be really hard to shift when cold.
Depending on the vehicle, you might be able to keep it
alive a bit longer with a synthetic oil of heavier weight,
e.g. Redline.

No, cereal based products break down and ferment to easily, sawdust is more

Hmmm, fermentation. Maybe barley might be worth trying.
