Sorry to be obtuse. I did not mean to be insensitive.
Just what I meant escapes me just now. I guess I do not believe adding ATF to an engine will do anything at all. Yes I know all about the sludge issue. Never happened to any car I owned. Never saw one. Unless its the result of failure to change the oil on a regular basis I dont know what could cause it. Ive heard of people who had it and SWORE the oil was changed. MAybe it was. Nothing in my experience would lead me to believe adding ATF and changing the oil will do anything to help a sludge issue or a carbon build up issue. To be honest it sounds like wishfull thinking. Just being straight and honest with you on this.
