So overfilling can cause issues too then. Food for thought. Another strange thing I've noticed, and even when it was working great and not overfilled, etc. When i do an oil change per the service manual, when completely taking out the converter drain plugs, i never, ever, ever get a drop out. Not even a little. When i refill though per the manual it takes a ton. That's what made me suspect the front pump seal, doing enough to get some fluid in there but not enough to keep it full.

Who knows, getting another tranny and motor this week, will throw this one in the garage and ship it to Eric when he gets into rebuilds. :)
