Thanks.

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.

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.

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.

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.
