    Its just cheaper would cost 14 a quart w/o wholesale... Its ur choice, syn oil is smaller molecules which makes it lubricate better but also have the ability to get by seals that dino wouldn't

    If u want the amsoil let me know cause ill have to.get it today they close at 5 and theyrr not open tom.

    has no idea what that means. Dino is factory oil?

    I'm guessing the funny feeling (like a tight fit) when putting in gear is from broke down oil and sludge :confused:

    IDK...can I get some more votes on what tranny oil? Bout to just tell you to get :cool:

    its a smaller molecule so it uas the ability to leak when dino might not, tis why its not recomended.to.use on older cars with higher mileage, they can begin leaking fluids when dino oil hasnt been... Chris4x4 would prolly recommend yota brand, idk

    I wuldve run syn auto tranny fluid in mine if i could change it myself but since.its sealed it got yota fluid

    I did a little research when 3rd started acking up before and all answeres lead to, "deal with it or spend mad bucks to rebuild"
