OK, all you mechanically inclined folks...
How in the hell do you make sure to get all the damn ATF out of the tranny when changing the fluid? I was sucking it out of the dipstick hole, moving the tube in, out, up, down, side to side, every way I could get it to move. I tried sucking that fluid out for a good 20 minutes. I was surprised how little I got out - but I had been pumping it everywhere I could get the tube to move until it sucked air. Finally, I gave up, deciding that I must have gotten it all and that it must have been very low.
So I added ATF (supposed to take 2 quarts). After one quart went in, it was full to the top of the dipstick hole. Dammit. Fired up the engine, checked again and yup - way overfull.
So I have since sucked it out again (got a whole lot more this time). But I am stumped as to how you know if you are getting it all. Any tips?
