66 Transmission overflow

Postby tera155 » Fri Aug 12, 2016 7:23 am

I noticed I am leaking transmission fluid out of the button at the top of the transmission. I will try and post a picture.

2 questions -- does the Toro tranny have an overflow relief value on the top of the tranny (btw the local Toro guys have told me my car has a 67 or 68 Eldo tranny). If I have over filled the transmission fluid what is the best way to take a couple ounces out of it? thanks everyone.

The vent/overflow is right there in the picture. The year of the trans is stamped in that yellow
tag. Note a 66/67 is a switch pitch, 2 terminals on the electrical connector. 68 up is fixed,
most have only 1 terminal. Bruce Roe

If it's just overfilled by a couple ounces, I wouldn't worry about it. Let it run out til its at the right level.
