Looks like Light Shockproof to me. More proof why I don't think that stuff belongs in those transmissions. I don't run it in my diffs anymore either.

Whoops, thats what I meant I think.

Anyways, I'm pretty sure shockproof is wax based. I know Jack's recommends strongly against using shockproof.

I would get as much out as you can and then fill it with some cheap fluid, drive it for a couple miles to heat it up, then drain it again to flush it all out. Then fill it with what you plan to run.

+1 on shockproof light. Looks like it was used straight up. I've used 1qt and the rest MTL, but not straight.
