I'm trying to verify my dipstick is reading right. How high should the fluid be inside the pan in relation to the hole where the dipstick goes? Transmission is a 1974 904.
I have fluid leaking out from the bell housing but the dipstick says full in neutral.Higher than the tube hole. every time I have removed a tube without draining the fluid it runs out on the floor. I believe there is a overflow on top of the pump if it gets over filled and would run out the bell housing. But some tranny experts would be better at explaining it all than I.
Well you do have input shaft seal and pump seal up in there that could be the problem also.I have fluid leaking out from the bell housing but the dipstick says full in neutral.
I would hope not. "New" transmission with a rebuilt torque converter. It did take 13 quarts of fluid to get full and that's what makes me think the dipstick isn't right. It's from a slant 6 904 tranny.Well you do have input shaft seal and pump seal up in there that could be the problem also.
Right but it wasn't even registering on the dipstick until 11 or 1213 qts is more than it needs. more like 8 1/2 from what I can find.
