When I changed the fluid and filter, I used one quart of Trans-X. After reading more posts on the subject, I slowly drained a quart and replaced it with another quart of Trans-X. After the test drive, I am happy to report that the transmission shifts through all gears without flaring or harsh shifting. Special thanks to Leathermang for the suggestion.
