about to install a converter, do i switch fluid ive been reading on here about not using synthetic ATF with a stall, im about to instal a yank ss3600, and iam now using MOBIL 1 Synthetic ATF. should i try to drain it all out and refill with dexron 3? or just leave it as is? i do not want to hurt anything. thanks
I run Yank last 11 years (ST 3600 and SS 4000 about 1 year) Dave said no Syn. each time I ask. You are going to get several differant answers on line I suggest you call and get the answer stright from "the hose's mouth "(Dave @ Yank )

Dex VI is a full synthetic and approved by Yank. I installed my SS 3600 almost 7 years ago with fresh Mobil 1, never an issue.
But the funny thing is that on the yank card sent with my converter it says "we do not recommend any type of synthetic fluid at all." but after that it says "dex6 is ok."
Now why would yank say a big no to ANY synthetic but say dex 6 is ok if dex 6 is synthetic?
Im not saying theres anything wrong with dex 6 cause like I said...I run it with my ss3600. I put 10 brand new qrts in
