Sorry I missed this. Flush it right away, and baby it. You could get as much as six months out of it.

Bill, should I run any Lucas addititve, or anything else? Its behaving again..run it in normal mode or perform mode...car is parked this winter until May..when i sell lol
Also to flush it, can I just remove both inlet and outlet tranny cooler lines, have the inlet sucking the fluid in as the outlet lets it out? or no

The lucas may help to break up varnish and deposits. Run it for 1000km or so, then do a professional flush. Get that fluid out of there. That dark stuff is friction material, and it'll breed more.

I beat the **** out of my trans for 7k miles. Floored it 80% of the time, dropped the pan once and can proudly say it shifts without a slip. And those say the 80E is not any beefier than the 65E -- LMFAO.

Auroradude, Matt doesn't have a 4T65E. He has a much more reliable 4T60E(HD) which probably has far more miles on it than your 80 will ever see.

Young people like me tear up their transmissions more. Its expected. My friend Rocko went through 3 trannies on his trans am. And 2 of those were seriously beefed. Drop another $1800, on your way home and never regrets a thing.

I expect to go thru 1 transmission on this car, but I am going to see if i can get 100k out of thiso ne.

? Are you justifying abusing your car? I can name a dozen members here younger than you, including Matt, who respect their cars and don't abuse them.

between you and me Auroradude, your friend rocko is an idiot okay.
Clearly I am not as abusive on my cars as you are on your Aurora, when your tranny goes, enjoy paying double for that, BUT i know money is obviously NO FACTOR to you, i mean, you are driving a nice new 95....

LOL...you know how I get all the money I do seriously? Between running my business and these freebie sites

DVDRecorders4Free.com - $400 paypal
FreePalms.com - $300 paypal
GetIpod4Free.com - 60GB Ipod (sold for $380)
FreeNotebookGear.com - $1000 Paypal
OrderIt4Free.com - $125 Paypal
FlashIpods4Free.com -- $100 paypal
MacMinis4Free.com - $550 Paypal

^^--->>>>> those are all the sites i completed. I am almost done YourFreeFlatScreen and that will be a $250 payout as I already have a LCD.

takes me all of a week to do these sites (except FreeNotebookGear that took 2 months) -- to find people to swap referrals with (referralswapper.com).

That is how i can afford a ton of stuff. You asked for it...you got it. Just to clear up the BS for some people that think my mom buys me **** all the time. I paid my insurance a year up front already with all this money from these sites.

You noobs are missing out on something real big. Have fun.

BTW...i do not drive my car like that every day. Usually just thurs & fridays whenever all of the boys decide to loiter cars at wendys for a swap meet. Thats when i race the most and floor it all the time for like 2 hours straight. I ran through my whole tank of Ultra 94 in an hour doing that once.
