Just wondering if there is a way to replace the flexplate without draining the transmission fluid. I am hoping to just slide the transmission back to access the flexplate and torque converter. Would I have to drain the torque converter before I remove it? Will it drain itself after I remove it?
Sorry for the list of questions, I just want to do the job right the first time (and hope there isn't a second time).
Oh, should I replace the starter at the same time as the flexplate (they grind on each other which is why I'm replacing the flexplate). The starter tested good, but I'm worried the gear on the starter may be getting worn/damaged too.
