Super on that not to mention the deuce filters it down to 10 anyway. It helps to let the ATF sit in the sun with a powerful enough magnet under the barrel if you have the time and extra resources. (I've had some real nasty ATF it seems)

I ran my truck off ATF for almost a year. Good stuff but head the advise to strain it down.

Don't forget about filtering for water! 50/50 should work fine. I know a few guys run straight ATF. I'll be doing it once I get enough.

And be aware that it WILL cleanout your fuel system. Have extra filters on hand.
