8. connected another hose to the end of the hose and towards an empty container on the floor with a mark for each quart of oil. (used an empty wiper fluid container).
9. started the car until it filled up to at least 2 quarts and stopped the engine.
10. refilled another 2 quarts of oil then repeat item# 9 until you get a reddish color atf. (I used at least 14qts of oil)

Here's the youtube link how simple it is to flush it. https://youtu.be/Q3fu0wiabFQ
Other posts clearly said that the top hose to the transmission cooler was the line FROM the cooler TO the transmission. I.e., fluid flowed OUT from the transmission cooler to the transmission.

The post above implies a flow in the opposite direction - it's implying the top hose flow is FROM the transmission to the radiator.

Is something wrong with the description, or is the flow reversed in the top/bottom hose for 4Rs with or without a towing package?
