I have the complete manufacturer instructions for an ATF change using the cooler line method but I was wondering if there was a better / easier way without getting under the car.
Since the recommended method involves running the system dry, I presume this is safe to do.
So the idea would be:
- extract as much as possible with Mityvac
- run the vehicle for x seconds (enough to fill the pan)
- perform a second extract
Depending on vehicle, this would give 60% to 80% changed in one shot.
Doing it twice would mean 85% to 95% change.
Anyone think this is a safe thing to do?
