After tapping it some, you'll notice tranny fluid starting to "ooze" out. This is good and you'll want to have your drain pan ready at this point! Again, pay no attention to the drain plug and me not using it! If you have a drain plug, you'll definitely want to drain the fluid from your drain plug first because it is much easier and makes much less of a mess! Since I'm trying to show how to change the tranny fluid and most don't have the drain plug, I'll show you how you'll most like have to do it :-)
