You can probably find 3309 ATF at Walmart. If the car sits overnight and you drain the tranny before starting, you will get more fluid out. Yes, check the fluid level before starting, you want the same level after the flush. Measuring the dumped fluid is also good.

Buy at least 5 quarts, just to be on the safe side. You will need a funnel designed with a long and narrow spout. It takes longer to re-fill than it takes to drain.

After the drain/fill, drive the car for 15 minutes to get the fluid up to operating temperature, then check the level with the engine running. It should be at the top mark of the 'hot' side of the dip stick.

Keeping it running is better than buying new
