Smells ok, but I don't think it's ATF+4, someone must have filled it
with Dextron II or something, thankfully it's a '95 so that's not quite
as bad as it is on the later trucks. Unless after a while it stops
smelling as bad as it does in the bottle. Oh well, it's getting flushed
out Thursday.

Looks ok to me too. Smell it... it will smell pretty nasty, but it
shouldn't
smell burnt. I like to feel it for grit between my fingers too.
