LSD transfers the power to the wheel with most grip during cornering, usually the inside one. Sort of like a mechanical traction control. It allows the power to the wheel to slip.

I think you can tell your type of diff by putting the car on a hoist or stands.
With the car in neutral turn one wheel by hand and see which direction the other one turns. If it go opposite it is standard diff, doesn't move is LSD and same direction is locked?????

Have seen the mechs run the car on the hoist in gear and stop one wheel by hand to see if the power transfers to the other wheel.

BTW If you have an LSD and you spin the wheels, both should spin. If you are on Bitumen and one stops the clutches will burn out very fast and it will drive like a standard diff. Lsd is made for cornering and getting the power down. Locker diff is better ofr straight line and burnouts (and 4wd off road).
