Paulwho,

I vacuumed a little over 1 liter after test driving the car for about 20 minutes. When I came back I noticed light smoke from ATF on the exhaust pipe. I think it was coming from a relief valve. After sucking out the excess fluid there are no more leaks. I’ll probably replace the fluid shortly as obviously I didn’t get all the old fluid out. I will just drain the fluid through the pan drain plug and the torque converter. I won’t replace the filter or the pan gasket . Do you see a problem with that?

Kestas,

I saw the torque converter plug several times but it was just about an inch short of the opening. I read a post here a few days ago where someone said they “inched” the converter with a screw driver. Does anyone know how that is done and how can a screw driver be used to rotate the torque converter? TIA.
