Default anyone tried the lucas atf additive?

I was working on my friends beast of a vehicle 91' toyota previa. His transmission slips like no other so in a last ditch effort we bought some of that lucas oil atf additive and dumped it in there. well it works like a charm now and nothing slips.

well on to my vehicle. every once and a while the transmission starts to act goofy. I am thinking about adding a bottle of that atf additive to see what happens, since it worked on good on my friends van. I know people are here are pretty skeptical about additives and I am just curious for opinions and comments.

what do you guys think?

I would be hesitant to put it in a good running trans. That stuff is a miracle worker for a trans that is about done, but on a newer one I"m not so sure it's a good idea. I have used it in several locals transmissions and it does work wonders if you have a trans slipping. Do you plan on doing a rebuild anytime soon?
