Just FYI, here's a statement I once read about ATF+4 trans fluid as it relates to the color and odor. I saw this on APS's website, but it is also repeated in the service manual and in the SAE paper #982674 which documents the development of ATF+4.

"The red dye used in ATF+4 is not permanent; as the fluid ages it may become darker or appear brown in color. The ATF+4 also has a unique odor that may change with age. With ATF+4 fluid, color and odor are no longer indicators of fluid condition and do not support a fluid change. Use 45K miles or 3 Years as your guide also replace filter and have bands adjusted at service intervals."

zman gave us a nice package, but no picture of the plug.
be sure and drill the big 1/2 inch hole in a flat section of the pan - and CHECK that its not going to hit a solenoid or something in the rear of the pan.

the side of the pan is a nice place to put it. i decided that after i'd drilled hole in the bottom
