I received a test (Blackstone) back on my trans fluid which showed 44/ppm of sodium and 24/ppm of potassium. I had a test done on the same fluid 6 months ago and there were 42/ppm of sodium and 2/ppm of potassium.
I know these could be markers for coolant. However, nothing indicates there is coolant present. The fluid looks brand new (it has 8k on it), no milkiness. There is no water or moisture on the dipstick.
When I pulled the fluid for the test, I used a pump that I use when I pump lower unit lube for my Outboard. Would lower unit lube have those two elements in its formulation?
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Tim
