While you were at the meet greet I was in tranny fluid hell...

[MeenZ28]

I was pretty sure but I guess anything is possible. I'll check that out.

Are you sure its full of fluid? If you rev it will it try to move at all?

Won't move whatsoever. Like I said - all I have is park and a bunch of neutrals...

My dipstick says I'm full. Out of curiousity, how many quarts does this thing take?

Well that depends.... Just talked to my Transmission guy and he said About 8.5 quarts 9.5" torque converter or 11.5 quarts 12" torque converter. Deep pan versions require as much as 14 quarts. Length and volume of the cooling circuit will vary and will require an additional amount.

the car needs to sit on level ground for a few hours until you can properly measure off the dipstick.

Well thats one problem... as you can see in the first page I'm not on level ground. The driveway is at an incline. So maybe it's a fluid issue. It'd be nice if it were that simple but knowing my luck....

Ok......


























well.....................





























I feel stupid.
































Needed more fluid. I have my gears back. The car is mobile again. I guess thats good news.



































I feel dumb.

[MeenZ28]

I supose unless anyone wants to comment.... Since my transmission hell is over - we can close this thread.

Congrats you got it fixed Grant. You may feel dumb, but look at the bright side -- it's an easy fix. Closing the thread per Grant's request.
