Has anyone tried it? results

Sea Foam baby Had a fresh rebuilt 700r4 for my bracket car a few yrs ago, never shifted worth a crap. My buddies had 2 700r4's in their pickups giving them fits so they threw in some sea foam, drove it per instructions and presto, tranny worked great again. I tried it after complaining about mine for 3 races, I'm not a believer in horse remedies, but by *** that thing shifted just as I thought it should 've when I first installed it!!

You know I wouldnt have tried it if my trans wasnt being replaced soon. I put in half a bottle of that Lucas "stop-slip" and the buzz/clicking from my trans at ilde and low speed went away! That snake oil works! I might be able to put off that trans swap for a while too.
