Do you think that just because the fluid is black? That's what a shop told me so they just changed the fluid and nothing else and it seems to be fine. No slipping before or after the fluid change though, so I don't know why the fluid was so bad in the first place. Probably just hasn't been replaced in a while.

Yea, I'm not a trans expert, buy I know the basics. But it shifts fine right now, so hopefully it'll be ok.

Changed the oil and cut/connected the two wires going to the low oil level sensor, as mine has been broken for a while but isn't coming out any time soon because I don't want to remove the headers! Anyways it appears to have worked, no more low oil light!

Dropped transmission and took out clutch, with the help of some buddies. In the next couple of weeks will be rebuilding the trans and installing a new clutch and slave before it goes back together.
