Oh James! Your persistence is commendable. I think what we'd need to do is connect an engine to a device that just pumped fluid round and round, forcing it against its viscosity. You'd certainly get more heat if it were filled with golden syrup compared to something formulated to be runny, like brake fluid. But such a device would be a bit different to a standard Land Rover transmission, which as we've noticed, seem to be getting a bit better at avoiding the overheating problem over the years. Anyway it's an empirical question and one we'll only resolve by sticking a probe in Hub's box (sorry, that sounds rude, but I won't go back and retype it). There's only us left in here, let's go and look at another thread.
