Big Jim-
I appreciate your candor and I think you are on the right track.
I have tried: factory fill, Ford Honey, Redline MTL, ATF+3 (on your suggestion) and Royal Purple Synchromax. See my thread just below this one "... observations" for full details, but in summary:
I feel the best fluid, regardless of price, is the Synchromax. Considering price, the ATF+3 was almost as good as the Synchromax till it broke down with use. I am curious how the ATF+4 will compare to the older ARF+3. If the Synchromax is robust and outlasts ATF+3 (as it should) then I'll stick to it. If shift feel drops substantially in a couple years I may go back.
