In all 1967 and earlier model automatic trans­
missions, use either DEXRON automatic transmis­
sion fluid or Type A automatic transmission fluid
identified by the mark "AQ-ATF", followed by a
number and the suffix letter 'A" (AQ-ATF -
XXXXA).
FLUID CAPACITY, DRAINING AND
REFILLING CAPACITY
Approximately 7 1/2 pints of fluid are required
to refill transmission after oil pan has been drained.
When unit has been disassembled and rebuilt, ap­
proximately 19 pints will be required to refill. Use
only DEXRON automatic transmission fluid.

has had an opportunity to cool.

gasket. Discard gasket.
2. Remove oil strainer retainer bolt, oil strainer
assembly, O-ring seal from intake pipe and discard
the strainer and O-ring seal.
3. Install new O-ring seal on intake pipe and
install new strainer on pipe assembly.
