Fluid turned green
1 Attachment(s)
I drained my Tremec TKO 600 after about 7000 miles and this is what it looks like next to my new GM Syncrmesh 88900333 the old stuff that turned green was 1052931.
Any ideas why it looks like this?
Thanks...
Mike

1052931, is actually 5w-30 motor oil. it is used in some tranys.
so it may have been green going in. i do know the brad penn 5w-30 is already green. so i don't think it was abducted by aliens or anything.
it was probably always green |

Could also be the assembly lube in the new transmission was green and tinted your trans. fluid.......I wouldn't worry about it.......

Hi Mike, I'm no expert, but kind of looks like antifreeze mixed with the oil........

It'd be pretty difficult for anti freeze to get into the tranny....ozzzzmosis?

Oh boy! I was instructed to use Brad Penn Green 20-50 in my engine. It goes in green. After 3,000 miles, it comes out waisted and dirty. I change my wix filter, add the green stuff, and go out and mess it the oil up again.
