ANother one for ya, I belong to a couple car clubs, the one mec. does everyones carbs he's like 80 and has been a mec all his life, he told me that the loggers used to when they changed there fuel filters would fill them up half way with type A trans. fluid. Anyone ever tried this? Or tried tranny fluid as a cleaner lube? Kirk

Not a good idea anymore... :nono The reason being is that the ATF of the 1970's was nothing more than red dyed hydraulic fliud... Today now with ATF+3 and ATF+4 there is all kind of chemical and additives packages dumped into it. Friction modifiers, etc... These chemical packages will have a direct impact on you IP pumps, and injectors... This was the change to 2 cycle oil was developed was to give a clean lubricant without all the additive packages and un-needed things thast ATF has now... Same principal but back to clean lubricant... :thumbsup
