[DML] Re: Auto Tranny Dip Stick



I just checked my dipstick (Ha Ha). From the stop on the red plastic
handle to the first raised line (the hot line) I measured 26 11/16. To
the next line (the upper warm line) I measured 27 7/8. The next line
(the lower warm line) is 28. The lowest line, the cold line, is 28
7/16. From the plastic stop to the tip of the flat metal piece is 28
9/16. I have my fluid level so that even when hot it never goes above
the hot line. Most of the time it is between the hot line and the
lower warm line. It is not good to overfill, it can cause foaming and
leakage.
