A ROPEN ????

I don't think I wanna know ....

Anyway, I remember hearing about some old timers useing it in tractors and such for lubrication, but I don't think it's goo to use in these newer diesel engines. Something about the detergent and the injectors ... something like that.


A ropen huh .....

Mayfair needs to come to Oklahoma,we will take you to a goat ropin. As far as the tranny fluid I seen people do it to clean their injectors, but I don't think I would. There is a thread about it but I can't find it.

I think the owners manual specifically states not to use tranny fluid in our trucks.

the tranny fluid will dammage the CP3 and injectors of the 3rd gens. . .2nd gens it would do a definate number on the VP44 over time from the detergents. the only things I would use would be Power Service, Lucas, Howes, 2 stroke, MMO, and a few others, but not ATF
