FYI: For the ATF guys. We did some tests and thinning ATF with 10-15% naptha or mineral spirits has better flow out/wetting than straight ATF. The published 50-50 ATF acetone mix as a sub for mystery oil is not one phase and will quickly separate on standing, plus it's vary flammable.
You can't really tell internal condition, if it just turns. That's playing the odds. It just a discriminator for big trouble or you're taking a chance with this one. Safest, but costliest, is to pull apart. A bore scope is a handy tool not found in most hobby tool boxes.
