OK...got the valve body in, buttoned everything back up.
I took the old fluid and measured what drained out in a 1 gallon container...a total of 7 quarts (PLUS I figured at LEAST half a quart on the garage floor!) is what came out.
SOO...I put 7 quarts back in. I noticed the DIPSTICK TUBE was full of fluid after adding the fluid.
I figued, well, when I start the truck the pump will suck everything in.
I started her, and transmission fluid (about 3/4 of a quart) was pissing from that vent tube(?) that hangs next to the transmission pan.
Is it OVERFILLED, or is this normal? Truck ran for MAYBE 15 seconds.
