As part of the Velvet Drive transmission fluid change it was time, actually way past time, to clean the Velvet Drive's strainer. It is not easy to access and so I wasn't looking forward to digging it out.
The first step was to remove the filter's hose from the oil cooler.
Next the hose was disconnected from the elbow fitting. So far so good.
Next the bushing and elbow fitting were removed from the transmission.
Finally, I stuck a finger into the transmission and pulled out (1) a washer and then (2) a slotted pipe. There was no strainer.
Nellie got a new transmission in 2005. Clearly this transmission is different than the one discussed in the document above.
The good news? Nellie's transmission now has 2-1/2 quarts of new Dextron III ATF.
