So just a little off subject but still on trans service when doing a service I use a in line elect. fuel pump and some clear line and put it down the fill tube to trans pan and suck most of the atf out of the pan it keeps it from running down to your arm pit and all over the floor and you a great time saver and saves a lot on the 4 letter words

drain plugs should come on ALL trans pans from the factory....they just want a fluid change more involved so nobody wants to do it and has to take it in to get er done

I think they don't put plug on the trans so half wit mechanics don't drain the trans thinking it'* the engine.
