Just loosen the valve body bolts and pull it down about an 1/8 of an inch. Let it drain, push it back up by hand then tighten the bolts.





Will do sir
While I'm in there may as well use a can or two of brake clean to get out what I can.

Any suggestions on band adjustment?
What is it.... torque to 73 lb,in then back off how many turns?
I'll note the position of the adjuster to start and see if it takes a lot to put back in adjustment.

No coolant in there.... cooler is separate from the radiator.

I have an aluminum drum in mine, change the fluid every 20-30 runs, filter every other. You mention Pro Trans if it's a Pro Trans that means rebuilt after 20-30 runs. I drive mine on street some, shouldn't need band adjustment if the fluid is changed as said above.
