Given the great Iowa weather (about 60F) I decided to go ahead with this task after work today.
I have to wonder when or even if the fluid was last changed. It was really dark and dirty looking. And what is with that ceramic-looking filter I removed? Is that factory? Opted to not put in Mobil 1 yet, for two reasons: (1) it wasn't available for purchase at either of the local auto parts stores, and (2) I want to dilute the crap that is still in the lines with less expensive ATF before I re-drain and put in Mobil 1, probably in a month or so. -- 1977 240D 1983 VW Quantum turbo diesel 5-speed 1972 Honda CB-500K motorcycle http://www.airamericaradio.com/listen
