Ok, What about this?
Since I have an add on cooler in front of the radiator , Could I put a
large container full of new fluid (Like 20 QT) and let it run into the
input line throught the X-mission and let it run out of the
transmission output line?
That way when 12 or so quarts come out I know it is full of new fluid.
no, because the 'transmission input line' goes to lube; there is no
'suction' on it
I do NOT endorse the following, but you could overfill it about 4 quarts,
start it and let it pump a gallon out, and repeat that about 2 or three
times
DO NOT LET IT run low to where the pump sucks air

what's the fixation with getting it 'all out' ?...........it ain't never
gonna happen
say it holds 12 quarts and you change 4
then you have 2/3 old
next time, you change 4 more quarts
but this time you get 1/3 of the 2/3 'old stuff'
now you have changed 1/3 + 2/9 = 5/9 of the 'old'
so you have 4/9 'old' left
changing 1/3 again gets you 4/27 of the 'old'
so now you have changed out 15/27 + 4/27 of the old, or 19/27 or just over
2/3
this process can be continued indefinetely, with diminishing returns
best is to change it now, then in a week or so, then in another week, then
start doing it every 12-15K
