Bananas/transmissions???

Years ago an old timer mentioned putting finely ground sawdust into an automatic tranny to make it quit slipping...

Must of been one of the pre-filtered trannys?

Could not imagine how the sawdust would make its way through a good filter, and into the valve body, and onward to the clutch packs to cease and desist the slipping/flaring... as the old gold miners use to say "something does not quite pan out"...

Not the type of fix-it that I would like to try/rely on...

But I had other scenarios of phoney/bogus questions bouncing around my head...

To post at a later time?
