I changed the trans fluid, 1st vacuum most out and it seems like more was drawn out than the normal 5.5 qts is this possible? Im at 5.5 qts and need to add more I ran it got it up to temp but was wondering if the pumping pumped out little more than the 5.5 it would take.

Thanks

 

Not uncommon to take a little more. Qt is not a true qt.

 

Thank you neighbor and I after looking at it,,,thought...wow we may have pumped out more than 5.5 qts

 

I put in the other half and it still showing a bout qt down. mannn it must of pumped oput littlee more...or maybe lot more.

 

5-7 is about normal. Especially if you did the filter.

 

Thanks for that cuz I was starting to worry... thank you

 

No problem. Glad to help

 

Are you vacuuming it out or dropping the pan?

 

Actually I was did both, but it seemed that we vacuumed little more than I thought. vacuumed it 1st, then dropped the pan, However, 7 qts did it. That was a little task I might add. due to that exhaust being in the way, we had planned to just go with the gasket, that didn't work it kept falling off. then we thought maybe use some string around a few holes, but then we decided to go with RTV. with cleaning the pan it took us 2 hrs we were meticulous about the pan surface being really clean.

 

Now for those spark plugs in next day or so
