I tried this once... the pump only pushs fluid, it doesn't pull... Sort of foiled my plan of using a 5 gallon bucket full of fluid with a hose coming out of the bottom feeding the input, and another bucket to catch the output. You really need the dual baffle system like the professional systems use - but I'm sure it can be done DIY somehow. I just lost motivation vs. having it done for $60 labor only when I supply my own mobil 1. Keep us posted on the progress though!

I think the concern about using anything to pump fluid in is that you don't want to really force it back in there... the beauty of the BG and other systems is that it uses the transmission pump's pressure, so it's really nothing different than normal operation - except of course that fresh new fluid comes back.
