Brooklyn Digital Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 did you do it your self? if so, re-do if one of the stealers did it, bring it back ( B4 a seal pops ) and have THEM re-do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990LS400 Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I bought a small inexpensive plastic pump at a hardware store many years ago. It has a handle that you rotate like a fishing reel handle and two long plastic tubes. One tube is the intake and the other one is the output. I doubt if I spent more than $20 for it.

sonyman Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 It'd be easiest to just redo it. Otherwise, you can purchase some sort of extractor, but it'd probably exceed the cost of new fluids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nc211 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Hi all,Please suggest the best way to remove excess ATF or engine oil because of overfill. Thanks. go buy 2 quarts of toyota tranny fluid.... drain the pan...when it stops draining, put the plug back in, pour in the two quarts, and you'll be set at level. oil... redu it if you feel you must. if it's new oil in there, just drain it and follow your manuals advice for amount to put in w/o filter change.
