In the same way your engine needs oil, so too, does your transmission need fluid. This fluid needs to be changed periodically to help ensure the assembly is operating efficiently. As it travels throughout the system, it picks up dirt, debris, and metal particles that can gradually impair its ability to lubricate the parts effectively. At some point, if it is not changed, your transmission can sustain damage.

Experts suggest servicing your tranny and changing the fluid every 30,000 miles (though you should always check your owner's manual for the recommended interval). It's a relatively simple job. With a little patience, you can perform it without the help of a mechanic, which will save time and money. Below, we'll explain the procedure, step by step.

Step 1: Draining The Old Fluid

Once you have purchased a transmission servicing kit (they're available at most auto supply stores), you'll need to locate the service pan from underneath your car. This pan contains the fluid when your vehicle is not running. There should be a drain plug on its underside. If so, place a catch pan under the service pan and use a plug remover to loosen the plug. Once it has been loosened, remove it with your fingers and allow the fluid to drain into the catch pan.

If your transmission's service pan does not have a drain plug, you'll need to remove the pan in order to empty the fluid.

Step 2: Detach The Service Pan

Once the fluid has been drained, loosen the bolts that are holding the service pan in place. After you have loosened the bolts, remove them while your hand supports the pan (otherwise, it will drop on you). With the pan detached, lower it to the ground.

Step 3: Inspecting And Cleaning The Pan

Look inside the pan. You'll see residual fluid that contains debris and metal shavings. This is normal. If the volume of debris is light, there's rarely cause for concern. If, on the other hand, there is a significant amount of debris and metal shavings, it might suggest a problem inside your transmission.

The servicing kit includes a new gasket. Remove the current gasket and clean the perimeter of the pan so that it is free of fluid and debris. Then, clean the inside of the pan and place the new gasket along its edge.

Step 4: Replacing The Filter

While servicing your tranny, take the time to replace the filter. In some cases, it will be located within the service pan. In other cases, it will be attached to your vehicle's transmission. You'll need to remove the bolts and seals holding it in place. Once you have done so, remove the filter.

After removing the filter, use a small towel to clean the edges of the tranny where the new gasket will make contact. This helps to ensure the gasket creates a solid seal. Once the edges have been sufficiently cleaned, install the new filter (included in the servicing kit) and replace the bolts you had previously removed.

Next, replace the service pan. Be especially careful to make sure the seal does not develop a leak. Once the pan is positioned properly, replace the bolts.

The last step is to replenish your transmission fluid, which you can do from above the assembly. Fill the level to full and start your vehicle to warm the fluid. Then, recheck the level and fill as needed. To make sure there are no leaks, recheck the level in two or three days.

A low fluid level and debris-clogged filter will eventually take an expensive toll on your transmission. Use the step-by-step procedure described above to help ensure the assembly remains in good operating condition.

Your RSS Feed Might Look Like Spam

RSS feeds seem to be the breakout technology for the year. With
more users turning to them for driving traffic to their site,
it's no wonder that a trail of RSS feed spam is following in the
wake. A careful editing of your RSS feed could make the
difference between being classified as genuine content or RSS
spam.

RSS search engines are just beginning to pick up steam. As more
RSS feeds become searchable, the number of visitors will
increase and spam is sure to follow. It is an unfortunate side
effect of free communication. While RSS users can typically
unsubscribe to feeds they deem as spam, browsing with keywords
in an RSS search engine is where the problem arises.

RSS spam largely consists of three main types most often found
in the RSS search engines. The first type is keyword stuffing.

Keyword stuffing involves filling each RSS feed article with
high-value keywords for a specific topic. The articles are not
intended for human visitors, but instead for search engine
robots to direct traffic to a target web site. This RSS spam
technique is nothing more than an adaptation of the typical
keyword-stuffed web page, often banned by major search engines.

The second type involves RSS feed link farms. These RSS articles
often contain very little content, if any, other than a simple
keyword. Their main attraction is the feed title. Clicking the
feed title takes the user to a blog containing tens or hundreds
of other blogs and RSS feeds, each directing to more links
within the farm. The goal of this type of RSS spam is to trick
the user into clicking advertisements or directing them to a
product web site.

The third type is the creation of fake RSS feeds. These appear
as legitimate, but often duplicated, article content. Whether
they provide value or not is certainly debatable. These feeds
are usually created in mass, using automated scripts, and appear
similar in nature to the link farms. By attracting the users to
seemingly valuable content, they hope to gain advertisement
clicks or product web site traffic.

Your RSS feed might happen to fall into one of these three
categories. While you may currently be experiencing increased
traffic from the RSS search engines, these directories are
working on filtering out the RSS spam techniques. However, you
can still take advantage of RSS feeds and their power by
following an RSS-friendly guideline.

Refrain from using automated scripts to create online content
used by your RSS feeds. Instead, write your own original
thoughts, product descriptions, and reviews. It takes a little
more time, but the search engines will value this content much
more highly, your visitors will appreciate the unique content,
and the subscription count to your RSS feed will grow. It is
also important to keep your feed updated with changing content
as opposed to using a static feed, which remains the same.
Search engines value dynamic feeds and will likely rank you
higher as a result.

There are tools and services available, which aid in keeping an
RSS feed updated with your changing content. Such services
include FeedFire for converting your web site content to a
periodically updated RSS feed or software such as FeedForAll for
creating and editing RSS feeds.

A successful RSS feed is very much the same as a successful web
page. It may take a little more time to digitize your thoughts,
but the end result is well worth the effort. By avoiding the
tricks in RSS feed spam, you can help make the difference in
quality of feeds and enjoyment in your readers.
