did trickshift screw up my tranny?
i was a quart low on fluid so i thought i would dump a quart of trickshift in thier (non -synthetic) in their. now it seems its harder to make it downshift when i need it too. and my first/second shift doesnt seem as hard either. would this additive cause that?

it was the son synthetic crap i put in it.
i read the back carefully and it says it is compatable with all crap. and at the bottom it did say it meets or exceeds type F standards as well though :\ so i dunno. my tranny prolly gonna blow up.

Trick Shift is basically rebottled Type F tranny fluid. It has more friction modifiers in it because the older Ford trannies (71-80 ??) have smaller clutches requiring more friction modifier to engage them.
