Re: trick shift fluid

[Donnie Schanz Jr <dcs426@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Each person takes things differently. If I give advise to someone, it will 
hopefully not cost him a huge amount of $$$ if I am wrong. Giving someone 
advise on which tranny to run, or who can build it for them, is one thing, 
but useing a fluid that I have never heard any of the top tranny builders 
advise, is something different. Take it how you want, but I was just 
protecting this guys hard earned $$$. Are you going to replace his tranny if 
this junk turns out to ruin it??? Answer that. What is wrong with telling 
him to call a professional? Even though I am an engineer in the automotive 
world, I AM NO TRANNY EXPERT. Most of us on these car forums are backyard / 
weekend warriors. Just giving advise that wont leave me at fault if it goes 
bad for this guy. I would do the same for you. Dont take it personally, I 
never ment it that way. The Carl Rosslers and Vince Janis's of this world 
are not commercial vendors. They have garage shops in small towns. They are 
just really, really good at what they produce out of those small garages.
