Sounds like you have a problem with alignment of the manual control lever on valvebody. Everybody seems to forget this lever.

And in the process of draining the fluid out again...good thing I Installed a drain valve....how would I go by adjusting that lever??

The lever lines up with a certain slot/pin. You probably missed the slot. In one of the trans threads somebody posted up a picture of it but i cant find it right now.
