Well as you know I just bought this thing, and from the carfax It was owned by a dealership for the first 9k miles. It may have had the fluid changed once, probably ATF. I filled it with MTL in May. Think I'll do as suggested and run straight ATF for a couple days and then go with the honey and XL-7. Only about sixty bucks, I like to do maint. and I'll feel better. The car has just under 42k on it now with no problems and I want to keep it that way. The way I see it is MTL is a potential problem, the honey (Ford part # XT-M5-QS) was developed for MTX's, my mind is made up. See TSB 00-0-1.
