Re: Tranny flushing experience 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be Wesley Nance on  Fri Apr 6 10:39 CST 2001 [RELATED]

My solution to that problem was to take an old drywall bucket, and using a liquid measure from the kitchen and some water, mark with permanent marker on the inside of the bucket marks at 2,4,6,8,10 and 12 quarts.

When I was flushing the tranny I would just turn the engine off each time I reached the next mark, and then added 2 quarts of fresh fluid. That way I didn't have to watch for the air bubbles in the fluid getting pumped out. This seemed to work just fine, and felt very safe as far as running the tranny dry.
