'96 XJ here and I've added a trans cooler up front but haven't tied the lines in yet. When I go to splice these into the return line of the trans I'd like to do something of a fluid flush at the same time. After I split the return line I believe the flushing process involves letting some fluid pump out then stopping everything, filling up with new fluid, then repeating the process until what's coming out is fresh red fluid. Couple questions...
1- How much fluid should I let pump out at a time before refilling? 2qts, 3qts?
and
2- What starts the trans fluid pump to pumping? Is it when the engine starts or when it's put in gear? I'm just wondering what I need to do to start and stop the trans fluid flow.
