So I've mentioned before I can't effectively read the tanny dipstick with any accuracy. I've got a bit of fluid coming out the vent so I'm wondering if the level is a bit high.
I'm going to try the Manny method of removing the modulator and letting the excess drain out the modulator mounting hole... that should be the Full level.
So
-Take the coach for a drive to get the tranny up to operating temperature.
-park on a level area and run the shifter through all positions.
I'm assuming I shut OFF the engine before removing the modulator?? (Gene's site does not say)
How long do I have to complete this operation before the torque converter starts draining down?
I have a Ragusa tranny pan, I'm guessing that should not matter.
Thanks
