    Atf is used to start motors that have been sitting for along time. Poured into the cylinders/housing is supposed to restore compression for those first starts.

    wont help with braking. get a 97 subaru forrester brake MC and make a up a brace for it. said to be the best combo for the fc and the stopping power is perfect.
