1996 Volvo 850 Turbo, Automatic Transmission: I am 99% done with an engine swap, the last thing I need to do is top up the transmission fluid and turn the key. I am a bit confused/worried about how this is done as I have read and done the procedures for flushing the system 2 quarts at a time via the ATF return line hose. This time I drained all ATF before pulling the engine, I would estimate about 4 quarts or so came out. When we separated the torque converter from transmission to replace the pump seal I maybe drained out another quart from the torque converter. Now that everything is back together and installed in the car what would be the proper way to go about safely getting this up to the correct level? Can you pour more than 2 quarts at a time via the dipstick and then just start the car up? Any info here would be greatly appreciated, I don't want to kill my transmission after doing a complete engine swap.
