15 US pints = 7.0976471 liters
1 litre = 2.11 US Pints
1 litre = 1.75 Imperial Pints
We really need to standardize.
Except for all the whiney cry-babies that can't do math, we'd be on the metric system by now.

| Post subject: | Have I overfilled it? |
G'day! Just wondering whether any of you blokes can help me please? I decided to drain my tranny and put a new filter and fluid in. '63 Valiant, /6 and 904. All went well until I refilled it. I checked the FSM and it said 15 pints. We have been metric here since '66 (DUH!) and the conversion I worked out to be 9 litres. OK, so I put in 5 litres started it and ran thru the pushbuttons and then added the rest. When I checked the dipstick idling in neutral it shows a little over the word "full" on the dipstick. Will this damage the tranny if i drive it this way? If so, how do I get the extra pint out of the tranny please? Hope I'm no the first dope to do this? All advice appreciated thanks Regards Gary |
