Hydraulic/trans flush

   / Hydraulic/trans flush #11  
Hi,

You may be able to get the ATF cheaper at Wal-mart. Up here in Canada it is the cheapest place for stuff like that. I agree, diesel is way to harsh, especially now with the low sulphur stuff ( ours is 5PPM or less ) so the ATF is a smart safe way to go. And any quick lube or oil change place should take it off your hands NP!! ( unless you have an oil burning shop heater.............)

Take care

Will

Just what the heck do you mean you MAY report back with results? Don't you know that once you've posted, you're obligated to keep us abreast of the situation? What kind of curious, nosey, busybodies do you think we are anyway? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif John

ATF = Automatic Transmission Fluid (I think it's generally a high detergent 10W oil)

Lots of wetbrake systems are compatible with UTF.
