Re: powerglide question

Joe, has the fluid been changed regularly in this trans? If not, and it has 50,000 miles on the same fluid, I wouldn't change it. You're asking for trouble if you do. Ask me how I know.

Re: powerglide question

Bill the owners manual has all the dates of change and looks like the fluid had been changed the last time at 75,000 miles, but this truck just turned over 100,000 last week and i thought it was about time. Who knows how many years it took to drive the last 25,000 miles as I am the second owner. Just want to freshen her up............Joe
