Kids these days!
   When I see someone missleading the list I'm just going to hammer them!

" And DO NOT USE ATF Dexron. "
    This is totally wrong! ATF is what I have been using for years. It
has never been a problem.  My 2 wheel drive Vanagon had 130,000 miles
on It without a leak! Flushed the system at 40,000 miles.

Let not miss lead people....It's expensive!
