I too am a little surprised that the remainder of the TC oil was not flushed out when it was stated that the oil was "poor". Not difficult to do and Cole's mob would know how.

^ I take my indies advice every time Ian. He suggested changing the ATF again in the near future. I wasn't going to argue.
Maybe Cole will reply as to why the TC wasn't flushed out by disconnecting the oil cooler pipe.

^ maybe the point is explained by that comment- it was a full on service taking a lot of time?
Given how long the ‘service’ had taken already, was it not better to breathe again another day?

^ I'd already been there 5 hrs because of those stubborn spark plugs.

The "thrills" of running an older car or maybe just cars full stop.
