thats a little but of a hike to save 55 cents a quart

 

When AMSOIL starts making the 15,000 mile 5w20 I will use it. Until then I will use Mobil 1 Extended Life. Plus I can not buy AMSOIL local.

 

Under the hood...

 

AMSOIL all the way I wish my local auto parts still carried AMSOIL.

My local parts place told me most customers don't want to pay the price for AMSOIL thats why they stopped carrying it.

 

how do i flush the tranny?

 

cummins has a thread on it.....I will see if I can find it.

 

to flush the entire system you will need about 5 gallons of fluid.

remove the tranny cooler line FROM the cooler and let hang into a 5 gallon bucket. crank the engine and place transmission in neutral then begin to slowly pour the new fluid down the dipstick at the same rate it is comeing from the cooler line.

when the fluid turns bright red stop engine and hook line back to tranny. top tranny off and your good.

this process is expensive since you need about 5 gallons of ATF to do it. you are just better off dumping what is in the pan, changing the filters, and adding new back.

to adjust the bands there is an adjustment outside the trans, and one inside. I am not sure of thier exact location.

You should have the same tranny 48re

 

is this to flush it completely??? like a shop would do? cause i mean get all the fluid out so i can put in amsoil.

 

Yea that will flush the whole system. torque converter, trans, colling lines. everything. However amsoil does not recomend it. check there site.

 

Are we talking synthetic oil here?
