Default th400 guys, have some questions......

someone told me that this means my tranny is overheating and airating the fluid and venting it out the vent tube. i think i may have over filled it by a quart or two.

it will obviously come out if its overfilled? or...does it only come out if im overheating the trans.

the trans wasnt acting right and i put in another 3 quarts and it spits fluid out of the vent tube after about 10 miles of driving....

second question, is the 24,000 gvw cooler gonna be enough for daily driving or should i think about upgrading?

sounds like you are over filled if it pukes. where does it read on the stick? what kind of stick you got? (here is a lil trick if you take the modulator out on the passanger side, and let it drain the trans will be exactly 1/2 quart low)
