The 1978 Corvette with an automatic transmission typically uses Dexron type Transmission Fluid. Initially, these vehicles were filled with Type A transmission fluid, but by the late 1970s, Dexron was introduced as the standard. It’s important to check the owner's manual or consult with a classic car specialist for specific recommendations. Always ensure you use the appropriate fluid to maintain transmission performance and longevity.

Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and then pull it out again to check the fluid level.

What transmission fluid do I use in a Dodge A833 manual transmission?
Regarding the A833 Manual Overdrive Transmission.....using Automatic Transmission Fluid as per Dodge's specs ( in a 1978 truck)....ate up the syncro rings in the transmission after about 50,000 miles and eventually seized. I believe this was a short-sighted attempt at increasing fuel efficiency ( lowering gearbox friction ). I have used SAE80 gear oil ever since in these gearboxes ( 1978 and 1889 trucks) with no further problems. Auto Transmission Fluid has no business in these gearboxes. That's a quote from the guy that had to rebuild my '78 gearbox.
