Does a figure of 19 pints seem right for an empty box?
Or to put it another way how much trans fluid should I put in an empty box and convertor with a B&M super cooler?
All answers in pints/litres/quarts/gallons/fluid ounces greatly apriciated..

19 pints (9.0 litres) is the standard 727 capacity.

hey rich just dont overfill it, they have a tendancy to blow out the breather which is in the bellhsg it makes you think you have a pump seal leak

is that why i get a leak from the front of the tranny sometimes and not others, usual after a longer journey?

its possible sean thats your problem best bet is have the fluid between the hot marks full and low, when the box has done perhaps 10 miles running in neatral, they will also blow out the breather when the trans is badly worn

the level is about 2mm above the high mark when warm after say 10 mins of driving, how can you tell if your trany is worn- is there a way to tell with driving, its performance?
