Lacquer Thinner In ATF Trick ?? (Att : Don Forster) 200

posted by  someone claiming to be hillbilly on  Tue May 17 02:41 CST 2005 [RELATED]

It's a old remedy for a auto that's been run with dirty or burn't (as in run hot) lubricant. It works. I've done it to several different cars in the past. It dissolves any varnish that may have formed in the tranny and frees any sticking parts. You really need to flush the transmission after this treatment to get rid of all of the "goop" that you're going to dissolve. It won't repair any worn out parts in the tranny, but if the problem is sluggish response or shifting, it helps. It works for me, your experience may vary.
