RE: [DMCForum] Bill Miller needs a new automatic transmission

["Dave Stragand" <dave.stragand@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sound like it could be simply old seals.  Before he swaps it out completely,
he might want to try a couple of bottles of Trans-X and drive it a couple of
hundred miles.  I've had fantastic luck with that stuff.
 
He can also change the fluid, refill it with plain kerosene, and run it
(parked) for about 5 minutes.  That won't hurt the trans, as kerosene has
lubricating properties and will dissolve a ton of sludge.  Then you just
drain the kerosene and refill with regular ATF.

Bill Miller called me last night.   He award winning (for the most 
mileage) Delorean, now at 290,000 miles appears to have worn out its 
automatic transmission.    I think his transmission has set a record.  
I know I have never had an automatic last even 100,000 miles.

He has replaced the computer and regularly changed the trans fluid but 
it no is popping in a out of gear.

Bill in now in the market for a slightly used automatic transmission.

Anyone got one?

BIll is not on the list and works like 80+ hours per week, so he does 
not have time to be in the net.

He will probably have Dave B. install it.
