G'day,
I run .5 ml per litre of ATF fluid in straight unleaded in the Desert Splitty and it seems to run cooler and run well. We recently drove 4200 ks in 7
days in the DS and some days the temp was in the high 30s and it never missed a beat.
Cheers, Ian.
Hi Ian,
We are talking Automatic transmission Fluid???? ATF??

I wouldnt mind a bit more info on the use of ATF as an additive also... sounds innovative but I would have thought it would damage bits...
particularly those made of rubber etc...
I have heard of the occasional person putting ATF in there sump... but hmmm... :duh
