Need to change tranny fluid! Should I install new filter and just drain fluid out or have it "power flushed"? Trac has 200k. It was changed early in its life but not since. Thoughts?
Note: Some service centers use machines that add additional force to blast fluid and/or cleaning solution through the system.
This is NEVER a good idea as this can damage seals and/or lodge sludge in places it shouldn?t be as mentioned above.
Machines typically connect to the cooler lines. The line that connects your vehicles transmission to the cooler will be disconnected and attached to the machines line in. This will allow the cars fluids to drain into the machine. The line out from the machine then connects to your cars cooler. This allows the new fluid in the machine to be transferred into the vehicle. The transfer process only utilizes the pressure produced by the cars pump to circulate it, so no damage can be done to the internal parts of the system.
