I'VE DONE ALOT OF POST ON THIS BOARD ABOUT MY EXPERIENCES WITH SYN. OILS .AND HAVE USED THEM SINCE 1977.
YES THE TRANS . AND EVERYTHING REALLY BENEFITS FROM THE USE OF SYN..
AGAIN I LIKE RED LINE IN GEAR BOXES OF ANY TYPE AND AMSOIL
IN MOTORS AND AUTO TRANS .

DO NOT USE SYN. IN NUMBER 6 DRIVES AND OR TRANS THAT GO WITH THEM !!! DO NOT !!!!!

ALSO BE SURE THE SYN TRANS.FLUID YOU GET IS COMPATABLE WITH YOUR AUTO TRANS.

HOPE THIS HELPS

Yes it helps bobby. I will change my trany oil also before boating season. It will be alot cheaper than buying a new trany. Well unless I decide to buy a new truck.

Amsoil has a NON SLIP RACING ATF that you CAN use giving improved performance and NO problems. But I wouldn't use ANY synthetic ATF that wasn't "non slip- racing" rated. --- Jer

jp, that's exatly why I havn't tried to use synthetic in an auto trany. If it slips then you just wiped it out. However I don't think that racing oil is the answer for a everyday tow vehicle. It really isn't designed to be driven 50,000 miles.

Rockie; I agree with you when it comes to using the race stuff in your tow vehicle. I was referring to use in MercTransII and B/W units in boats. I do however, use Amsoil's series 2000 (non race) ATF in my motorhome and tow vehicle. On the m/h where I have a tranny temp gauge the oil runs a good 25*F cooler than with origional fossel oil. I just gotta believe it's more healthy. --- Jer

just USE THE REGULAR SYN. IN THE TRUCK AND CARS THERE IS NO NEED TO USE THE RACING OILS ,AMSOIL SAYS 24,000 MILES
I GO 7500 CHANGE OIL AND FILTER ,USE RACE IN BOAT ,
