Auto Transmission Swap

[Stan H]

Wife drove it home from dealership 6 miles and I drove it around the block after changing motor oil . Then she says oh yeah the receipt is on y9ur front seat . Was under my hard hat. Thats when I noticed it said checked and topped .

This story bugs me. From gasket to not using much fluid, and other stuff.

Triple check it, and do a fluid swap - making sure it's done correctly.
Hootbro has done it multiple times. he knows

Well I cant do it in the middle of the night . It is full gonna check it one more time to make sure . Ran gears twice and then checked and it ran out the hole. While it was idling

I think checking it at 86 and capping it off at 90F is where I’d have it. 120 is on the far side of the window I wouldn’t want to have the oil level at …but it is in the window.

Well it will have to cool off check early in the morning let ya know

They did indeed change the filter . Ypu can see the that the O ring is used and the nuts were tightened against the filter .

I lost a tiny bit when I took the plug out . Ugh .

Fluid also that leaked out was green . Not black before I could get plug back in it . I had a bright light on it

I appreciate the late night help . Let ya know what I find in the morning . I suspect it is okay.

It’ll be good once you do your morning check.

If it's new Mopar 8/9 speed ATF it should be a light green color.

Ir was a tiny bit low line ounces. I added till it came pouring out then waited till it got to fast drip then stuck plug in end temp was 93 or 94f
