Shifting issue with AT
#7
there are many ATF additive treatments sold for A/T boxes, that can make the seals to get softer (chem actions) and start sealing right now.
most are just a band- aid, as the seals will not be really fixed. they are just chemically attacked. but is a great way to get out of a jam, no?

i hope im wrong, but any A/T rebuild shop will tell you , this is true. (and the books ) (they get the trans, after all that fails eventually)
when the seals get old and hard, they are bad.
but one can in fact, use the treatments.
after a while the treatments are not able to soften the seal any more. they do have a limited life, this is for sure.

the stripe code is just body weight, codes. over 22 old cars used this trans , and many weight class codes.
nice list. and the Grumman LLV
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo-Hydramatic_180
the VM for any LLV will down shift way too soon, on hills, and drop economy in direct measure.

for sure, see let us know how long it runs on this magic sauce.. 1 week, 1 year?


here is the magic sause answer from the pro site.

the fact is , what did that additive do to the seal, organics.
is it going to fail harder. if yes , then it will never shift again, even hot. (it's a risk , that)
when does it end the softening magic?????
that is the big question?
