Will Trans Tune flash off or boil off in transmission fluid? [SOLVED]
I’m working on a 2004 Honda Pilot 3.5L V6 with the Honda BVGA 5-Speed Automatic Transmission 170,000miles, assuming previous owners never had the transmission serviced. I did three seperate drain and fills with full synthetic universal import ATF fluid…
That was 500 miles ago, thus 85+% is new fluid.
Today I added 16 oz of SEA FOAM TRAN TUNE, then after driving 50 miles is much smoother, quite impressed.
I plan to do a succession of more drain and fills after having the TRANS TUNE at around 300 miles.
I understand that I can add the whole can and leave it their as a conditioner.
My question is: Knowing that TRANS TUNE has a much lower flashpoint, will your product flash off or boil off in a transmission over time at normal operating temperatures, such that eventually I will lose the original 16 oz of volume???
Glad to say that SEA FOAM offers such amazing and very SAFE products.
Thank you!
Great description and question, Tony. Trans Tune will blend evenly with the Honda’s ATF and remain for the life of the fluid. Considering a transmission heats to a bit over 100F, Trans Tune will NOT flash/evaporate or boil off. A low flashpoint has more to do with whether a fluid’s vapor will ignite at a low temperature.
