It all depends, you may find you have to add a little even with the fluid that has it included, like the Royal Purple should. Best to change it and see how grabby it is, if it's too grabby add a few ozs.

Yes -- it'll chatter when you turn. Add an ounce at a time until it quits. I didn't need any with the RP I put in.

Lee I went to royalpurple.com and looked on the dealer locater on the top of the home

page. Click on that and you will have to enter your zip code and then it will tell you who

in your area would have it.
