ABSTRACT:
An apparatus (10) is disclosed for completely flushing transmission fluid from a transmission in a vehicle (12). The apparatus includes a storage tank (18) which is connected to a cooler line (38, 40) extending between the transmission and a transmission cooler (radiator) so that the vehicle transmission pumps the used transmission fluid directly into the storage tank. Simultaneously, replacement fluid is supplied from a supply tank (20) and pumped into the dipstick tube (32) of the transmission by a suitable pump (22). In this manner, the used fluid is quickly and completely flushed from the transmission.
