Re: expanded capacity automatic tranny pan

I just bought an aftermarket cooler for my M1008. I hope that extra fluid
doesn't drain back. My aftermarket pan already leaks because I had to get a
different dipstick/tube. It doesn't seat all the way in, so I leak fluid from
around where the dipstick tube goes into the tranny.
