[DML] Stupid question for brilliant people-Auto Tranny Blues

["ltshaneclarke" <ltshaneclarke@xxxxxxxxx>]

Well, as many of you know I've been fighting with my auto tranny for 
over 5 years now.  I have lost 3rd gear right out the gate and now 
reverse is gone.  So, I am going to attempt to have it flushed and 
serviced one more time.  But, I think  it's time to do a new/rebuilt 
tranny.  Along with that, every time I drain and refill the system Ican 
barely tell where the fill mark is.  I follow the service manual that 
says fill with 2 liters and wait until vehicle reaches operating 
temperature then add fluid to the fill line.  Every time it jumps from 
bottom to high.  I also run it through the gears a few times and that 
seems to bring the level down until I fill it again, then boom it's 
over the line.  Any help for this idiot would be greatly appreciated on 
how much you have had to put in your tranny.  Also, any help on getting 
a new/rebuilt tranny and governor and all the fun gaskets to have the 
job done would be greatly appreciated.  I know that last year some 
people had some for sale.  Thanks again for the world class help this 
group offers to morons like me!
