So first to let everyone know the good used transmission is finally installed and completely functional thankfully! I did this as an engine IN CAR swap and with the car on jack stands with
a LOT of creativity and a transmission "jack" thing I rigged up out of wood that slips onto a reg 2 ton floor jack The engine I supported with two fence posts with heavy tow chain wrapped around it to the engine. The poles were perpendicular to the fenders and I used wood and bricks on inner fenders to raise and support the poles and take up any slack prior to dropping the transmission, So that is done ....... NEXT I did an oil change and always remembered that this car calls for 6 quarts of oil. The thing is I added the 5 quart jug and started it let oil circulate engine warm up to check trans fluid level and top that off, Then turned it off waited and checked my oil level. Its exactly on the FULL Mark of the stick BUT I noticed it says on the stick 5 quarts capacity!!! The stick is what came with the car as I have known and I had it since 1984. It appears to be the correct stick with the all metal kind of wavy end on it and a little washer looking thing that the stick passes through that isn't pressed or welded by sort of wiggles. This is where the stick and end of tube meet, SO question is Does a factory stick say 5 quarts??? It does have a part # which I have to check and then post to see if that is correct. I know the 6th quart will bring it to over fill on the stick. I also know that wont really hurt anything but I want it correct.. So can any 66 Toro owners check their dipstick and let me know. Much appreciated!
