I'm considering a fluid change for my tranny. All of the methods I've researched leave quite a bit of un-drained fluid. I'm wondering if anyone used this tool. It states that it completely drain the tranny.

 

Can't knock the idea, but if not a real high mileage car without ever being changed, is it needed? Changing the fluid, & filter every 50,000 miles seems like a better idea to me. Just how many SPECIAL tools you use every decade or so do i need? My garage is full of tools, bikes, cars, as well as all to much stuff that i might need to fix something or other, do i need this?

 

Interesting idea. Assuming it works as advertised, is injecting compressed air into the transmission and removing all the fluid not a problem? When you do a traditional flush via the trans cooler line, the idea is to constantly replace the old fluid with new and everybody seems to warn against letting it run dry.

 

Yeah Wingrider, I hear you. I have a lot of special tools as well. However, there's nothing like having to right tool when you need it. Plus, I like getting out as much of the old fluid as possible.

 

NO argument from me there. Wondering could you use a rubber tipped air gun just opening the air gently blowing the fluid out as well?

 

Yeah, I'm considering using the spout from an old filter and making one myself.
