I have a 93 Q45 that i recently put a rebuilt transmission in, not sure what year transmission is, my question is which line coming out of transmission is output line?Drivers side or passenger side line? output does go to top radiator inlets correct! 2nd question, why does my transmission fluid overflow out of fill tube after i run it for about 10 minutes or so,kill it, then try and check fluid level.not able to check it cause it overfloes, the whole system only has about 6 quarts in it. i check it while its running it doesnt do this,it shows really low on stick! but after i kill and try to check it flows over please help!thanks

You check the ATF level running in park after it has reached operating temperature.

Why does it matter which is output be obviously the line which has more pressure is the output.................probably feeding the top allows gravity to drain heat exchanger.

How could you have a rebuilt without knowing the year range since the rebuild kits are very different for 90-93 vs 94-96?

How do you know the rebuilt is good or functioning...................95% of local rebuild shops have no test equipment to actually check their work............transmission dynos are reserved for large companies due to cost and complexity.
