It's done 850

Hi Klaus,

Thanks again for your continued support. You and others here have made my life
easier getting this 95 850 back into shape.

Today I flushed the tranny and ARRRG the fluid must have been original from the
factory, 200,000 miles ago..it wasn't brown, it was black and full of little particles.
I flushed out with 10 quarts of Walmarts finest, and added a qt of Lucas tranny
goop. If you think it takes a long time to pour trans fluid, try that Lucas stuff, maybe SAE 80. Next time I do this I'm gonna heat up the fluids in a 5 gal bucket of
very hot water so it isn't such a PIA.
It's nice to do this before the transmission gagged on that evil crap that was in there.

Happy Holidays, Bill
