No, the vacuum bleeder method. Originally I was set on the one guy at the corner, the other pumping the pedal method. But filling up the transmission took freakin' forever due to the small diameter tubing I had on hand (and lack of any sort of pump to speed up the process). So while Dave was minding the Swepco (fill up funnel attached to tubing and wait...), I was bleeding the corners. That "gold" ATE isn't so much gold as it is almost-clearish. So the old "blue" stuff just fades to light blue. Not nearly as dramatic a color change as write-ups had me think.
Why do all old vehicular fluids (other than maybe motor oil) smell like cat piss?
