- 1994 Aerostar extended
The fluid didn't look bad after 83K, but since Advance Auto had synthetic Peak brand fluid for 5.99 a qt.,I bit the bullet and did the complete flush with 20 qts.
Nice and red and ready for 100K just like my old Aerostar did with synthetic.
Anyone else out there flush completely with new synthetic?
The van is doing great,and I've only had to put on front shocks.
BTW,I added a metal gas filter(3/8" in and 3/8" out) into the tranny cooler line,since the old fluid DID have some metallic specks throughout it.
I had one on my other Aero and it worked great,changing it every 10K or so. don-ohio ^)
