no, its an OLD mechanics trick. trans fluid has additives to keep the countless rubber seals inside the transmission soft and supple for decades on end as well as alot of detergents to keep gunk from building up on the insides of the transmission.
inside your engine it will do the same things, soften old seals and gently clean up gunk. its a pretty common trick to run some atf in with engine oil for a couple oil changes to help quiet noisy lifters on engines. -------------------- |
