Sometimes when I'm talking about using ATF in an engine, a common question is ..how much smoke comes out?? Well, here are some pics my buddy sent me of ATF we put into another car a few months ago...we were trying to save a 135K mile motor that had been through some rough times,lol...

Last one. These pics weren't even when we first started the car,lol..so to answer that question..A LOT OF SMOKE!

You know atf eats the rubber oil o rings and side seals right?

Only if u let it sit too long...ATF is a last resort technique only!
