Alexander the o.k. Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 A bottle a day! Are you sure there's a bottom to the fill tank? :) I seem to have to top it off about every 3-4 weeks with 4 or 5 ounces. But then I've been using a little trick I thought of several years ago. It is this; Start adding ATf fluid with STOP LEAK in it. I think what I use is called TRANS-SEAL. It should swell the seals enough to slow it down to almost nothing, unless of course they are physically gone. This may be a cheap stop gap until do finally do have it replaced. By the way, are you a Brit? Others who know more than I will be along soon I'm sure. Good Luck... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done all the stop leak products out there even the one's that say money back if it dosent work , well hey lie it does slow it down but like clock work if i idle to long or park it over night a whole new bottle goes in...
