Started hearing a few odd "worbles" from my wife's AX-15 when in OD ...decided to change out the fluid today. Now the FSM spec's GL-3 fluid. Try and find it. You can't. When I bought the thing, I did find one Mobil distributor that would sell me a 5 gallon bucket of Mobiltrans SHC 50 (a synth like the Mopar fluid) @ $110/5gallons. A relative bargain to the $15/quart dealer price.
Okay ..so I say "Heck, I'll just use one of the GL-4 jammers out there and take my chances" (apparently the GL-4 is nice to the soft metals too). Everywhere I went they wanted as much or MORE then the dealer for the synth GL-4.
So, $45 later...I have a fresh fill. The drain plug had a paste on it ..but no beard
