    I am going through my new to me 360 and found I am VERY low on F1 fluid which explains my little F1 light on my dashboard flashing sometimes, when I check the fluid there is none on the dipstick but I can still see some in the bottom so I may have or may not have air in there.

    Where can I get DONAX TX TODAY ! in S. Calif. ? I have searched here a found lots and lots of threads about Dextron IIe vs. III vs. VI and also CS Tutella Speed, my immediate question is :

    If my car has some synthetic in it, will I mess it up putting regular Dextron III in ? Any old Dextron III will work or should I get something specific ? and again I want to get it in today, I have a smog appt. at 10:30 and DMV meeting tomorrow to finalize my registration. (If it was not for that I would order some fluid from Ricambi and wait)

    And vice-versa when I get some new and correct stuff I will go through the procedure that I have seen here where you suck out some fluid and put in more, drive it a few weeks/month and keep doing it, eventually you will have only fresh fluid in. But will that mess things up when.

    There are so many posts here that I got lost in all the threads with exactly what I need.

    Would love to assist but I'm afraid I'm an old fashioed guy with three pedals and less problems to worry about! :)

    Happy to give you a "bump" though. Undoubetly the answer is "out there" somewhere among all the chaff but I appreciate that you're in a hurry .......

    Best!

    I have the Tutela in stock, but it probably wouldn't arrive there this morning. :(

    Daniel,

    I will be ordering some later today along with a few other things.

    For today, since no one said "don't do that" I will just go get some Dextron III and use that (unless someone says no in the next hour)

    Mike Ferrari issued a filling procedure update 5 or 6 years ago. Dont use the stick. Fill to about 5mm above the silver disc you see in the bottom of the resv. Check cold.

    We use Mobile 1 synthetic in the 360.

    430 came with Tetula.

    Some people mix them. We dont.

    Maybe some one has the pdf on filling. I dont have it on this computer.

    I've read many different ways to check the level but thought that cold and primed it should be just above minimum on the stick, cold and unprimed about halfway and warm may be just above the top of stick?
