Eaglekiller Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Since I finally have a runner I have been working on my maintenance program for the car, using the Shop Manual. I have researched on here and other places to find the consensus modern equivalent for all the fluids. So I thought I should put it in a list so people can give their two cents With my classics I have learned to have a list of all the proper fluids. Car 1954 Straight 8 With Hydromatic Transmission Climate is California Hot Summers 100+F but no Humidity Oil Bath Air Cleaner: Valvoline VR1 SAE50 Engine Oil Modern: Shell Rotella 15W-40 Transmission: Valvoline Dexron III Brake Fluid: ACDELCO Dot 3 Radiator: Carquest AllMakes(Green) AntiFreeze/Distilled Water 50/50 Im not picky on brand these are just what my favorite store has on shelf Anyone running different fluids? Would like to hear what everyone is using, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
