dailydriver said of ATF..."WHY do the 'old school' mechanics suggest dumping a quart into the sump of a push rod engine with stuck/noisy/even collapsed hydraulic lifters??"
It's old fashioned for sure because the older ATF had some kind of solvent in it. I don't remember the stuff's name but it's been gone for years.
I read that the day before a friend of mine tried an oil sump full of ATF to cure a noisy Subaru engine. It didn't work a lick.
