I was going to change the filter in my turbo 350, and was wondering how much fluid I need to buy? I plan on using Red Line Dexron IV. Has anyone been using this? I also have a external tranny cooler to include in the fluid level. Thanks Mike
Should be about 4 Qts. - as long as you are not draining the converter. Best thing is to put in 3 and drive it around the block then re-check it and add accordingly, it's easy to overfill. :bglasses:
All you can do is drain the pan, as there is no drainplug on the converter. As mentioned, it will take about 4 qts. I am using Red Line D-4, it's an excellent fluid.
That's what I liked about my Furd.......I wonder why GM doesn't have drain plugs on their converters? I heard you can drill and tap them for one but it has to be in the correct spot or you'll ruin the converter. :bglasses:
Yours holds 4 also if you just remove the pan. You also filled your converter that's why it took 12 quarts. :bglasses:
