Re: Tranny fluid per Don Dulmage

How does Dextron3 fit in the equation? That's what I am using.
Ya, I miss Don too. I am ready to start on my /6 stroker.

Back around 2000, they used to say it was semi-synthetic.  But I've since 
heard that it's full synthetic.  It's sure priced like synthetic.  Right 
around that time (2000), ATF+3 was what the new vehicle manuals said to use 
in Mopars, but then they came out with +4 and said to use that in place of 
+3.  There may have even been a TSB about it for Rams, if I remember 
correctly.
