Re: trick shift fluid



Just sayin....If it's got teflon.....it's s#$t.
If the manufacturer does not list the ingredients....(proprietary ingredients) I drop it like a hot potato.
If I don't know what in the product, I ain't taking a chance of destroying hours of labor and lots of money invested in my engine, tranny, and rear gears.

P.S. My wife doesn't call me an idiot. She just says that I have a propensity to invest her nest egg in a bottomless pit. Or did she just say I was a dumb ass just pissing my money away.
Couldn't hear every thing as I was under the 65 tinkering....
