Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Transaxle fluid

so i see that the how to says that you can use atf+3 because it already has the friction modifyer, how true is this and how good is it to use? i guess i should of consulted you guys before i put it in, but if its a problem i will take it out

It will not be a problem. Many have used it.

so i changed my trans fluid from Redline MTL to the Ford Honey stuff. I drove for about 400 yards and it didn't seem to make a difference. I'll drive some more this afternoon and see what happens.

When putting in the fluid, you seem to be able to put more than 2.7 quartz in it. Would it be a problem to put in 3 quartz or more?

cya

quartz = the most common mineral on the face of the earth

quarts = multiples of 0.946352 litres


To answer your question, I'm going to assume you're talking about the MTX-75. Overfilling the trans could lead to excessive heat, which is not good.

With the car resting on flat ground, remove the fill plug. If there is excess, it will drain out. If not, you're good.
