tranny over fill ?

[circmand]

I am not being sarcastic and I have not done it myself yet. But from what I read you fill it by pour tranny fluid in the same hole you check for fullness. it seems to me if you put too much in it would just come right back out. I plan on doing this soon so I would appreciate an answer.

Overfill is possible if you are filling the tranny while cold...the ATF expands as it comes up to operating temp.

See the chart in post 2 for proper temp & procedure.

It is currently about 123 degrees outside. I will just leave the fluid out in the sun for an hour and it should be good to go

Yeah, the thing about the tranny is, you need to put 3 or 4 quarts in, run through the gears as per the instructions, and then WHILE THE VX IS STILL RUNNING, fill the tranny with the remaining fluid until it starts to dribble out, THEN you cap it off. Its really not that hard, just messy and hot and you need a helper. Filling the tranny is way easy if you use one of those funnel things from Wal*mart, while one person has one end of the tube in the hole and one person holds the funnel up and pours in the fluid....
