Chrysler's TSB, issued back when those 4-speeds still had dipsticks
labelled "DEXRON", told dealers to drain and fill 3 times with ATF+ to
remove enough of the Dexron "contamination".

Wow. He reference a real TSB! Thanks!

My LHS was filled with 'modified' Dexron, and started slipping in 20 miles.
There isn't any slipping, so I'm hoping it has the right stuff in it.
I'll go 1,000 miles, drain and fill and then do it again.
