Guest marcusheawood Posted July 31, 2005 Report Posted July 31, 2005 You could always get one from the scrappy :blink: If you're only topping up any ATF is better than leaving it to get low, if you're contemplating a change you should use a semi-synthetic to guarantee longer life (exceeding ATF 3+ standard). Frankly the method and thoroughness of changing and flushing the oil is more important than brand. You need to change it all, and this requires some homebuilt plumbing to achieve. Quote
Guest stevebm1 Posted July 31, 2005 Report Posted July 31, 2005 so,are you saying,you can re-use the old seal? Quote
Guest marcusheawood Posted July 31, 2005 Report Posted July 31, 2005 I would not dream of "advising" you to re-use the seal, however visual inspection may well lead you to rightly conclude that the seal can safely be re-used. OK? :blink: Quote
Guest stevebm1 Posted August 1, 2005 Report Posted August 1, 2005 I must admit the thought of using the old seal did occur to me,but I just dont want to get stuck if its worn,or disintergrates upon removal Quote
