This is the info I have. I guess I will measure temp (on the second drain to make sure it’s proper)


So my new list is 1) jack car up, get level
2) drain fluid and measure what come see out
3) add new fluid (slightly more than what comes out)
4) drive it thru all 7 gears.
5) come back , jack it up level again
6) let it cool off
7) drain & refill what comes out
8) hit trans pan 3-4 places with infrared gun to check til it’s between 95-113 degrees roughly 104 degrees. Once close to 104 degrees I’ll unplug filler plug and once it starts to barely drip out at proper temp I’ll reinstall plug (like I did with my rear diff) and go test drive it.

Am I good on this?
