Also, what happens when you mix the two different tranny fluids together? one stuck in lines and new fluid... tried that with break fluid different kind learned it the hard way...

I have experienced much smoother shifting with the redline fluid tho, that's a fact.

You should have used jack stands. There is not a lot of room under there if the jack failed.

Another tip. Crack the fill plug lose before removing the drain plug. It will drain faster. And like mentioned, USE JACK STANDS. Especially if your making a how to vid for other to follow. Safety first!

I refilled mine from above using some clear PVC tubing and a funnel.
Very easy, let gravity do the work.
