ok, is a good alternative......I´ll wait a few miles for the miracle!!.....thanks x 1000

finally agree complete stp engine oil treatment can, but without appreciable differences in pressure numbers...

ok.....I remember in the past a person add a little oil treatment to his old hydraulic steering to make it work better and improved a lot!!... Should not be the same? My only doubt is whether the chemistry of honey oil treatment will be compatible with the atf, I just hope that the liquid does...

Originally Posted By: meep i think we may be looking at wrong clutch -- it may not be the torque converter. There is a regular dry clutch between the TC and the gearbox, driven by a very large vacuum diaphram type actuator, if I recall. If you can detect it's slipping, especially if it smells...

Finally my initial question; STP engine oil treatment (or similar honey) and atf dexron III are compatible?? I dont have clear in my mind!!... ATF high temps (Redline) is my best choice.....simply atf more viscous!!

atf high temps is my best choice.....atf more viscous!!

no exactly, in this page appear 100% automatic trans, mine is semi automatic trans(autostick), only use atf for torque converter system, dry clutch system and rest of trans with 80w/90.... http://www.volkswebbin.net/topic/87001/71-autostick-lerches-in-1st-or-r/

Originally Posted By: Greasymechtech Conventional Dexrons shear too much . Temp visc seems to be the problem with this worn out unit. Find a shear stable or thicker ATF, or install an ATF cooler. Mopar/Dodge ATF+4 is worth a try. Its relatively shear stable and won't quit when overheated. You...

dexron II maybe??

Thanks for your answers,my TC not valve, only lines and returns to tank.... in the Bentley manual seems check atf pressure to ensure good cooling, if the pressure is 52.6 psi at 2000 rpm is fine, if less check pump, atf level, lines, etc .. ...... I live in temperate climate, now in summer 91...

Originally Posted By: Lubener Originally Posted By: Chris142 If the trans won't work properly with the correct fluid the trans needs work Exactly ! Add STP and it will need work much sooner. Its only for a Torque converter flow and cooler (centrifugal clutch), rest of my trans use 80w/90.

Originally Posted By: 901Memphis Lucas Transmission fix is super thick, it has a viscosity of 48 cSt @ 100C! Adding 1 quart of that would thicken up anything pretty substantially. Adding 1 quart of the Lucas to a 10 quart sump with 9 quarts of ATF with 7.5 cSt @ 100C visc would end up with a...

Originally Posted By: Trav Any idea what the original spec was? I had a Citroen CX Pallas with a 3 spd half automatic that took a special hydraulic fluid for the TC but it was labeled as ATF. in the 1973 bentley manual appear "use dexron with 5-digit number preceded "B"

my car needs atf only for torque converter cooler and work....not needs 100% automatic trans specs!!

IMO, for reliable measurement should I use the same manual recommended atf viscosity or another very similar!!
