My transmission temp dropped 12 degrees (a good thing) after Transtuning & fluid change. Returns flow to cooling coil & fluid passageways.

If you have a laser thermal reader, shoot the tubes coming out of tranny & returning from cooling coil.

I use Seafoam/ Transtune/ Lucas Oil Stabilizer/ Water Wetter/ Lucas Injector cleaner-upper cylinder lubricant. That's about it for additives.

Actually Seafoam & Transtune are more of a treatment, as they leave when the fluids are changed.

Fixed woohooo! Number 3 and 4 plug wires looked on and felt on but were not. After starting a small fire with the arc I watched and them. Saw them arcing so push harder and heard the snap yet again. Now back on 8 cylinders no shudder or shimmey. Got my baby back on 8 cylinders again.

Loose plug wires......I think you should wet your hand slightly & secure coil wire connection at idle. ...just to make sure!

Yeah I know I even checked them before man. IDK he only does that at op temp. Ran him all day today on 6 cylinders if it had been a Dodge or Chevy it would not even have started let alone run all day.
