Hey Mick-  That's the one negative criticism that I've heard about the
stuff, is that it leaks a little, no matter how tight your trans is.  It
shifts better because its molecules are smaller.  But- it leaks because its
molecules are smaller.  That's what i've heard anyway-  do you still have 4
qts for me- we'll hook up..  later
