Re: transmission fluid?

Depends on if you are filling the converter too... @4 for trans only & up to 10 if trans & converter are dry. Dont go by these numbers, Im just rough guessing. You will have to get it close & run it. Fill until you can feel it go from reverse to drive & then start checking...

A th350 with converter takes 10 quarts totally dry. But i start out with 7 and let it warm up. Start it up and let it sit in each gear for 10 seconds and recheck and add fluid till its reads full.

Re: transmission fluid?

to add to his question...
even if the tranny is a quart or two low, it should still pump fluid through the cooling lines, right?

when i swapped engines, after the truck has sat for 4+ years, the tranny no go, i pulled the cooling line, and nothing, which makes me think bad pump.
