putting in too much ATF cause too much pressure and can blow out seals etc.. make sure its the right amount

it should be at or real close to the bottom of the top hole(the filler hole, not the drain hole) just fill it until it hits that mark, drive it for a couple miles, then check it again.. add as necessary
