Like the engine, you don't want to fill it to the top mark. That is not
the full mark. The top mark is the max do not ever exceed no matter what
mark. 1/2 quart will get you where you need to be but happened that the
level went down? You want the trans warm, engine running and van level
before topping it off. ATF loss at the governor seal going into he final
drive is a fairly common problem.

Subject: ATF level

Does anyone know how much fluid it takes to raise the level from the
bottom
mark to the top?  I need to add fluid and I'm curious as to the actual
amount of fluid between the two marks so that I don't have to dribble it
in
a little at a time.
