<VV> Dexron in PG

Sun, 23 May 2004 00:25:25 -0400


Any comments on modern versions of Dexron being used to top off my PG 
transmission?  What about if I change fluid and filter?  Is the "Type 1" or 
whatever necessary, or can I safely add Dexron 4 that is readily available 
at every auto parts store?

only Vair guy around.
