Torque converter drain plug
Does anyone else not have a drain plug in the torque converter? I went to change the tranny fluid and filter yesterday and after draining the pan and replacing the filter, I went to drain the torque converter. I removed the observation pan (I did not have a rubber plug in mine) and spun the converter completely around and did not see a plug. My truck has a ford reman'ed tranny the PO had installed. Do you think this may be the reason for no plug? I was looking for it on the bottom of the converter and all I found was an orange painted circle. Should I have been looking somewhere else for it(on the side, etc.). If my converter was not equiped with one, how do you guys think I should drain it? I have read the instructions on how to drain the cooler lines and converter by running the truck but that does not sound very appealing to me. Thanks, Adam
