For fluid, the red bottle Valvoline Maxlife is the correct and cheapest way to buy it, if I mind right. Mercon V is expensive and I’ve never found it in bulk other than that stuff. I’d buy a dang 5 gallon bucket if I could.well when it warms up to near 10 degrees this afternoon, I will give the prime it method a try.
I do need to do a transmission fluid change, so that is something to think about. got the filter, now I need the fluid. what does a shift kit cost?

Transmissionpartsusa has the Transgo shift kit for about $62. O rings and gasket for the reverse servo plus the valve body gasket set is like $10. Apparently they don’t have the one-piece separator plate anymore.
