Que: Kink free extra hose for in-line trans filter & a decent non-synthetic fluid 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Ronjon on  Thu May 29 08:49 CST 2003 [RELATED]

DIY friends,

I am about to change the transmission fluid and install an in-line transmission filter (catch all the fine metal particles and etc.). Larry, on this board, mentioned to get the filter for power steering since it fits better and add an extra hose (upper cooling hose from a S80) to make the installation kink free.

Is the kink unavoidable without the extra hose? Can anyone tell me what exact part number that hose be on IPD or anywhere that sells the filter and the hose?

What would be a decent non-synthetic fluid? Also, is it bad to drain and add fluid, at the same time, while the car is running? That way I do not have to start and stop the engine too many times.
