Re: How to: Flush your ATX fluid and change your internal filter
BigTyla - So given my suggested procedure of draining: Draining, filling with cheap fluid and sea foam trans tune, driving around a few miles manually changing gears, then draining again and filling with good stuff; That would probably not help to flush out MORE of what is stuckin the converter? or do you think there is a chance some of the fluid in the converter will have exchanged out of the converter to the rest of the tranny in the test drive and that maybe on the 2nd drain you'll get more of that older fluid that was sitting in the converter out of there?
I understand that "some" fluid will always be trapped in the converter, but I'm wanting to know if the chances are better on the 2nd drain if I will have removed some of the exchanged fluid that would've been sitting in the converter on the 1st draining. All of this is because I don't know if the fluid in the converter is actually circulated "constantly" throughout the tranny or not rather than it just being ALWAYS stationary.
IE: If the converter holds 1 quart when you go to drive the car does that 1 quart definitely circulate thru the transmission when the car is in motion and changing gears? or does that 1 quart of the same old fluid just always stay stationary in the converter never circulating thru the rest of the tranny?
