Okay, I just got a cb9 with 92k miles on the odometer. Unknown actual miles, the odometer's broken. Anyway, I need it to last at least until I can get a 5 speed swap done, and my dad thinks the transmission fluid smells funny. Unfortunately he is paranoid bordering on schizophrenia, so he'd think it smelt burnt if the fluid were two minutes old.
Anyway, drain and replace the fluid, drain and replace fluid with a filter change, or flush the fluid, and change the filter? I've heard flushing the fluid can be really bad for your transmission if it hasn't been done regularly, but draining and filling isn't as bad. Something about flushing the fluid causing stuff to fall apart or get released into the system...not sure. Thoughts, opinions?
