Re: trick shift fluid

[William Harrison <bbjt3@xxxxxxxxx>]

I too am in agreement with Donnie's statement.
I remember when slick 50 was the rage until motors started failing because the teflon in slick 50 started blocking oil valleys and oil pickups.
So many l;aw suits were filed that it was taken off the shelves or not re stocked when the supply ran out.
Try to find slick 50 now or oil additives with teflon in it. 
Again this is my .02 cents worth.
I almost commented on this thread when it started but held back until now.
