I flushed my tranny last December and added Lucas Tranny Treatment at about
200K miles. It may have been the original fluid :-( very ugly!
I used about three gallons of Walmarts Tech stuff.
Now a little over 2000 miles on this fluid, the stuff looks cruddy.
Is this due to the Lucas treatment?
Should I reflush with the Walmart stuff or what? I thought Walmart had
a synthetic fluid, but they're out or stopped carrying it. What stuff is the
best? Is there a good inline tranny filter somewhere?


The Lucas stuff seemed to do a good job since the seal at the drivers CV joint
was weeping fluid, and it stopped. Apparently the seals respond well to
the conditioners.

Thanks, Bill
