Thank you!!! Swapping in some AMSoil synchromesh this weekend.
No problem. It's recommended to get a new washer for the drain plug.

Oh yeah, and make sure you open the fill plug first before you open the drain plug.

it takes however much fluid it takes to fill it to the check plug,

you can't just dump 2 liters in it, and walk away

the capacities listed in the manual are estimates only
Agree 100% - when I changed my transmission fluid on level ground, approximately 0.1 quarts remained in the transmission pan. This amount was deposited after I lifted the car and had it rest on two front jack stands.

If you are not using the check-fill plug, then you may overfill the transmission assembly, which can lead to problems. Do not overfill this transmission - more is not better.
