Yep.    When I'm short on Rislone I dump a quart of ATF into the crankcase
a couple weeks before an oil change.    And, it's cheaper than Rislone.   


However, it's still hovering around a viscosity that's pretty low for an
engine using the stuff exclusively for daily driver service.  I'm not so
sure I'd wannna trust it for such.
