At 13 quarts, the oil was clear from the send pipe and the job was done. Needed 1 1/2 more quarts to get hot motor running up to hot mark on dip stick. This is a less harmful method of purging unlike the shop method which puts an external pump into the system that uses more pressure than the tranny pump. Many people discourage the shop method as it can dislodge more crud that can just upset the whole apple cart. Purging is such a lovely word, has many uses !!
As for the filter, that's all I know, it's what is on the box.

thank you. i figured it out after i looked up the tranny flush thead, but thank you for explaining again.
so what is the point of putting another filter on the lines if there is one inside the tranny? im assuming you would want to keep the resistance as low as possible to allow as much ease of flow? does this go on the cold or hot line?
