what fluid do you have in that manual tranny ?? should be GM sychromesh gear oil.

the dexron III will work but it is not good for the yellow metal bushings and does make shifting much harder....

with not starting engine run start with basics fuel/spark ...no spark distributor/coil/power to coil ...fuel issues check the pressure /fuel filter/voltage to the fuel pump...
