Thumbs up Re: How to: Flush your ATX fluid and change your internal filter

K - Now that we've got all the BS straightened out here is what I have found out:
I called the place (http://www.autoprofit.com) and long story short the dude referred me to a guy who could answer the question:

Does the pressurized flush system flush the fluid out of the torque converter?
Answer: YES and he added it flushes out the valve body, tranny cooler, torque converter, and all tranny internals. I made sure to ask him twice about the torque converter and specifically asked him if this was an issue in different cars and he said NO. He said it gets the fluid out of the TC in all trannies it gets hooked up to and seeing as the machine would cost $4000 - I don't think I'll be able to justify the cost for buying one for myself. LOL - Unless of course for $100 a pop at every 3S gathering I'd flush everyone's trannies. LOL - In any case I now believe firmly in FLUSHING after high mileage. Say maybe after 75K flush it, and then do a follow up flush every 60-70k with "drainings" in between.
