Newer trans built by Lonnie...id say 6000 miles on it....trans is maybe a court or so overfull...i figured this would be a good thing for the most part for lateral loads etc....but....I am getting some bubbles in the fluid on the dipstick....is this something I should worry about? If it is are there any suggestions as to how to drain a little bit from the trans without dropping the pan? I do have a nice trans cooler on it...could I pull one of the lines and start the car to pump just a little fluid out if needed?

Thoughts and opinions?
 
Thats bad because now you are airating the fluid.
Its ok to pull a cooler line and drain to your necessary measurement.THANKS RUDE DOG
 
After further consideration and checking it again....its only half a court over after installing the cooler and the bubbles are not abnormal....i think she will be fine...
 
over full easy clean fix

Take a squirt bottle (409)go to parts store or lowes and get some clear hose clamp or zip tie hose to squirt bottle suction tube. wipe hose off and stick down fill tube of tranny. Take a watter bottle and squirt into untill you get enough out.
