Its like giving up smoking when you are 95, yeah its going to make a difference!
Well we are up to 335300 so far on the original trans. so maybe synthetic
is a waste of money in your opinion. I have noticed an improvement in
the way it shifts.
so maybe it will crap out tomarrow, and then maybe it will go another
100,000. we`ll see.
you are right it will blow at some point, but if it does, oh well.
I`ll fix it with a 4-speed conversion.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
