I'm currently running a 1998 1.6 Civic 5 door hatch auto as my shed. Would there be any benefit to getting its ATF flushed and changed? Gearchanges are pretty clunky but it kicks down and changes fine and there's no real hesitation going into gear, whether forward or reverse. I'm going to run it for a few years as it has very little rust and was pretty cheap. What's the verdict?
