I dropped the pan and changed the trans filter this afternoon and when I was pouring in the sixth bottle of Mercon V fluid it started overflowing from the filler and also pour out from the drain pipe below. I checked the fluid level (moved the gears around, warm engine, idle) and the fluid is past the cross-hatched area about two inches. I'm about to drive the Trac around a bit to see if more will drain out and hopefully that's all I need to do to bring it back down to the proper level. If not, how bad will this affect my trans? What's the best way to remove excess fluid without dropping the pan? I do have a drain plug on the pan but will the bolt seal properly when I reinstall it with fluid running?
