I just bought a 2001 Chevy Blazer 4.3 auto with 60K on the odo. Its been like 10 years since I owned an auto and never changed the fluid then but after visiting this site for a while I see things different.Anyway Im not sure if the fluids ever been changed but the fluid in it looks good.Still a dark pinkish color and smells like fresh fluid.I plan to go get an aftermarket pan with cooling fins and a drain plug in the next month or so and do a filter and fluid change.My plan is to get a couple cases of a decent dexron3 fluid and drain the pan about every 20k and refill after the first inital pan drop and filter change.Does this sound like the way to go to make this tranny last a long time.Also I planned on changing the thermostat from the stock 195 to a 180 to keep things cooler.
