Re: transmission fluid

I'll tell yuz guys, if you don't change often, ever 10k or so, and wait till you've got a lot of miles and then do it, the tranny might start slipping. you are taking out a lot of dirt that is providing the seal to make it work. new fluid washes it out and opens tolerances a bunch. this is well known phenomena in ford-chevy. my advice is run it till it dies without changing if you haven't ever refreshed it and you at 60k or over. a possibility that has worked for me on chevy is change it when its cold. but i'd never risk it unless i had too....
