Alright, this is really pissing me off ...
Back when we first got the car running, Joel and I put a bunch of tranny fluid in. I bought 3, put in 2 3/4 qts, but I didn't know how to check it correctly, so it was still low. Joel came and brought like .. 2 more qts., put those in and it seemed to be JUST BARELY under the high mark for the hot temp. After this, I checked it again the other day and it was low again .. like NOT on the dipstick at all. I bought 2 more qts, probably got about 1 1/2 of those in, and still it didn't show up on the dipstick. Today I bought a gallon worth, and a funnel. I put 3 qts in, and I just started to see it on the bottem of the stick. I put the last quart in, and it was like twice OVER the top of the hot temp marking. I drove home slow cause I was at Walmart, and I decided to double check it ... still over. So, I drain some .. check it, drain some, check it, drain some, check it .. it looks like theres a SHITload more than a qt that has come out of the tranny, but it's still over the top slightly. About the distance from one marking to the next, over the top ... is this too much, should I drain more? I know too much is probably worse than not enough, but is that too much?
