It is remarkable that I have found all the peicces of the engine that has been dismantled for close to a year.

Almost all, I seem to have misplaced the transmission dip stick.

I don't recall why i pulled it out.

The GMC trans dipstick goes out to the front right? Mine is Tornado so it just sits on the under the deck.

In any case, I might be a while to find a proper replacement and I need ot move the coach bnow beforethe mud comes.

Apparently I've lost some fluiid. When i put it drive almost nothing happens.

So, can anyone offier an educated guess on how much fluid it should take after I raise it to the level where it engages?


I will drain it and fill it and replace the stick in the coming months, right now I just need to drive it a few hundred feet.

Thanks
