Quck tranny fluid change question
Hey guys, i just changed my fluid over to the new honda MTF. Anyway I bought a pump to pump it up but it doesnt make the best seal, so I used some electical tape to make it air tight, otherwise it doesnt pump at all. Anyway after I pumped it all in the tranny I noticed the glue from the tape broke down a little and there were a few black specs of the tapes glue in the bottom of the bottle. I did not see any get pumped into the tranny, but would this be much of a big deal anyway?? am I just over worried? lol Thanks in advance

umm.. why would u make it air tight.. all u had to do was stick the tube in till it doesnt fall out.. pump till the fluids start running out and plug it back up .. a little over fill is ok..

no no air tight with the bottom of the pump thing into the bottle of tranny fluid. It doesnt create suction otherwise. anyway, is this something to worry about in the least bit? shifts seem a lot smoother

In the future just put a gear oil top on the honda bottle and squirt it into the transmission.
