from what i've read with the cd4e's you're no better off with synethic over the standard mircon

I don't know where you get your info from, but you are wrong...

Any BRAND NAME Synthetic has much better cooling properties than Mercon does.
Mobil 1 is the 2nd best synthetic ATX Oil you could get for your ATX.
AMSOIL ATX Oil is the absolute best.
Replacing your Mercon with either will reduce the operating temperature of the CD4E,
and lengthen its life dramatically.
You will STILL need to change the ATX Oil regularly, but it is nice to know
that Mobil 1 and AMSOIL won't break down as quickly as Mercon does.

so i take it that mobil1 is safe for me to use... now, can anyone tell me where to go to get it?

most car parts stores like advance auto, o'reillys (sp?) pep boys, and auto zone should have it.

Should have bought a MTX.

Also neutral drops are plain stupid. They are however a great way to trash your transmission in a big hurry.

I would most definitely do a flush and fill with Mobil 1 (you'll need like 12 quarts and follow the How-to)

I just installed a tranny cooler. Moibil 1 might be in my future.

not gonna follow the how-to, don't feel up to the challenge, just gonna drain and fill 4qts at a time and do it often. advance auto and wal-mart don't have it, i hate having to search.

Autozone carries Mobil 1 ATF

found it there tonite, gotta get me $60 now.
