@JustHarry This is a auto trans from a saturn that can be flat towed all day at 65mph That's the pump shaft on the left, sort of inside the input shaft, and the output shaft on the right. From my understanding that allows the vechicles motion to spin the pump when the engine isn't spinning it That's pushing the extent of my knowledge on autotrans's, Iv only seen the inside of 700r4s
-
Dunno, it was something that came up when I was looking at cars to tow behind a bus, maybe I got that bit wrong Apparently all saturn autos can be flat towed, they have some funny features Really I settled on one of these, a more practical pt cruiser
-
I'm led to believe that some autos drive the pump off the output shaft rather than the converter or have a dissconect 2002ish rav4 being one of them. Making them desirable for RV motor home types
-
The trans doesn't like it because there's no fluid getting pumped through, pumps not spinning, but the output is spinning from being towed. Generally it's considered OK if its less than 25km and you don't exceed 40kph.

There's a big list of "open gear" grease and sprays available, I'd imagine any are fine (they are literally called open gear grease)

Deoxidine instructions say wipe off with a clean damp rag before it drys. Then wipe with a clean dry rag or prepsol before paint
