I tried it in my F350s E4OD for a little while, it fixed my chatter but I was pretty easy on it. The stuff is THICK! It took about 10 minutes for it to flow through a funnel into my trans.

I went ahead and had my tranny power flushed, added a bigger cooler and had a line pressure resistor kit installed. Much firmer shifts now and the chatter is gone.

I put one bottle in it and it ran smooth for a while but almost back to the normal hard shift, anyone use two bottles. It recommends two for bigger trannys but i dont know how big is big? Seems like alot of people with E4s change the torque converter in theres so maybe i got a bigger battle than i think
