Why do people insist on wasting oil? Three hole oil change is wrong. Read your service manual. The transmission oil is not ready to be changed at the same time as oil and primary....just saying. This is a waste of oil and money
Are you drinking the oil after you change yours? oil is 5k, primary is 10k and transmission is 20k...I know math is hard but hang in there and I'll walk you through it tiger ...... first time is an oil change (5k), second time is oil and transmission (10K), 3rd time is oil change(15k), 4th time is ALL 3 (20k) rinse and repeat. Hence " 3 hole oil change". jesus this is the shit I wake up to...do better.
Clean oil is some of the best insurance toward mechanical longevity! Lots of evidence out there that HD's maint intervals for the primary/tranny are too loose. 3-hole it baby!!
@@RonPetrey your there doing the oil why the hell not do all 3 I guess there bike is not worth another $25 holy hell really people do all 3 every 5,000 pretty damn simple 🥴
I live in the southwest dry, dusty, and extreme heat. For example, it’s 09/30/24 and it’s 107 degrees. Yesterday, it was 114. So, the extreme temperatures where I live causes the oils to lose their “flavor” quicker. I do the 3-holes changes ( for the most part) on my own.
I’m doing one this afternoon, it was 72 dollars total for the fluids, filter, and rings.
Nothing wrong with completing the 3 hole more than HD says.
Thank you Sir!!! You walked me all the way through my Engine and Primary oil changes! People were questioning me because I’m a female... their feeling stupid now because I did it perfectly thanks to you💕💕💕
Thats awesome! ...now start charging them to change theirs! Glad to help!
I truly enjoy your video's Steve. I know, and do, my own fluid changes but, I still watched the whole video just to make sure I'm not missing something. You explain everything so detailed and it's enjoyable to watch all your how to video's. Thank you for helping us all out on things we can all save money on.
What ^^^said.
Thank you for checking it out Mark..much appreciated man.
Thank you ricky!
this is the most thorough 3 hole fluid change on a M8 on RUclips. hats off to you sir, I was able to do all the work myself instead of paying stupid HD prices.
Sorry for the late reply, I just got back from Sturgis...really glad the video helped...and thank you for checking it out!
Thank you sir. I paid for a 3 hole M8 change video two years ago from someone else, and I have to say your’s is much more to the point and easier to follow. Plus includes jokes (wife towels, 14 curse words). You’re the best. Thank you for sharing this. Paying it forward. Thanks again sir.
Yes sir thats one thing we wont ever do here at SIK is charge for videos...bikers helping bikers...not charging bikers! Im glad the video helped and if you have any questions please feel free to shoot! Thanks for checking it out!
This was a great step by step video. A 3 hole change in Canada is North of $500 at the dealer, and I’ll never have to pay for that one again. I found Amazon was a great source for “an oil change in a box”, so $200 and a little video time in the shop was a much smaller pill to swallow. Thanks for all you do!!
Coming from a metric over to a '19 Street Glide, and this video is exactly what I needed. Thanks!
Youre very welcome Doug...glad the video helped!
Greetings from Germany! I love his voice. It is like your father is telling you how to do it right.
greetings Alexander! Thank you for checking out the videos and the kind comment! Much appreciated.
Another great video. I never would of thought about what would happen if you drained the primary then couldn’t get the derby cover off. Thanks again for all of the great content.
Thank you Paul....learned that lesson the hard way...twice..im alittle slow sometimes lol
Happened to me once. Couldn’t for the life of me get that one torque screw off. Had to have it towed to the stealership.
I used your video to guide me through the entire process. I have a 21 Road Glide Limited 114. My trans took the entire quart but I did let it sit and drain for an hr or so while I took a break. By the way Harley put copper antiseize on the derby cover bolts. Thanks for the info.
Absolutely love how simple, and straight to the point your videos are. Well done!
Thank you glad to help!
Thanks for the video. I play it every time I do my oil change. Either my bike or buddies. Go by the numbers so I don’t forget anything.
Yes sir glad to help!
Tip for the oil filter slipping. Mine did the same thing, I had some skateboard tape ruff on one side and peel adhesive on the other side. I cut strips of it stuck it to the inside of the oil filter wrench and used it. The ruff side will grip the filter and you'll be able to get it off without it slipping.
Im going to have to get some...ive had 3 this month that HD did the last change on and damn..all been to tight...makes a mess for sure.
I loved the torque wrench advice. I’m glad I’m not the only one that drives nuts!
Sorry for the late reply, I just got back from Sturgis...but yes...drives me insane
Good morning my friend I have a 2020 Road king and after watching your video about 10 times I decided to do it myself. I also changed the air filter. Thank you for your videos. I’m going to start saving money instead of taking
really glad to help to save you some money! Once you do it a few times it gets way easier.
Thank you for sharing information about the warranty not being voided because Harley does an incredible job at making sure that if you do your own oil changes that this would be the case.
yes sir and they just got sued for that and lost...a new revised warranty standard was just released that included this along with only being able to use HD parts on your HD.
UK rider here...great videos, simple with no waffle and BS. Nice 👍
Thank you for checking it out Mike!
I want to thank you for the video. I just paid $300 for a 3 hole drop. I will do my oil changes myself since watching your video. Thanks again
You're very welcome! I'm thrilled to hear that the video was helpful to you! Learning how to do your own oil changes can be a great way to save money and take more control over the maintenance of your bike. By doing the oil changes yourself, you not only save on labor costs but also gain a better understanding of your bike's needs. It's a valuable skill that can potentially extend the lifespan of your engine.
Excellent video really enjoyed your sense of humor. I’ve been riding motorcycle since 1972, have always done my own oil changes for the most part. I ride a 2000 road king and the first thing I do when I buy a bike is get a service manual if I can find one. The service manual has 5000 miles all three holes so that’s what I do.
By far the best video I’ve seen on this. Thank you!
thank you for checking it out and glad to help!
I'm a new harley rider. I just got my '22 street glide.
Your videos have lots of good information. Thank you
Thank you for checking them out Nicolas! Ever have any questions just drop us a comment and we will try to help the best we can!
You jus saved me tons of money cuz Harley charges $670 for 3 hole oil change so definitely will be saving my self big money thanks to you very on detailed too 💪
I will be doing this for the first time myself this weekend and must say your video has exactly all the information I needed. I appreciate your inclusion of torque recommendations for every bolt, and the precise fluid amounts (pre check). Excellent video! I will be checking for you on any future DIY projects I may have.
Glad to help Jason...we have videos on most maintenance that you can do at home...thanks for checking it out!
Just picked myself up a 2017 CVO Ultra with the Milwaukee 8. Traded my old reliable 05 Twin Cam, man I hope I made the right decision!! Appreciate your time and knowledge Brother, good wrenchin!
I bought a prepaid service plan that covered my first two oil changes, the rest are on me. Thank you for posting this video.
Glad to help...thank you for watching!
Im not mechanically inclined, I bought every item you recommended here and changed my oil and transmission. (Only at 5k miles) My transmission oil was so clean for a sec I thought it was the oil I just changed but then I saw that you recommend doing that at 20k. Gotta still do my primary. This was a great video! Would like to see another done specifically on what else to check and service at 5 or 10k miles and also how to change spark plugs. Thanks Steve!
glad the videos helped and saved you some money! It wont hurt to do all 3 holes after the first initial 5k miles because you can really check for metal scraps in your oil and see if you have anything crazy going on in there. I do have a spark plug video I just put out about a month ago here on the M8's ruclips.net/video/He3g2dMXBGg/видео.htmlsi=L_X60C692sVgNatS I haven't done a whole video on maintenance schedules but this link here will give a great idea of what needs checked and when www.stonewallhd.com/Service/Maintenance-Intervals
Great video. Im getting ready to do my oil change on my new bike will definitely be saving this video!
Thanks for checking it out Will...glad to help!
Hi Steve I’m a new rider I enjoy watching the videos and how detail they are the way you explain everything in this video I was planning on taking my bike to get service but watching this gave me the confidence to do it myself thanks
Hey Ben!! First thanks for checking it out and really glad to hear it helped! And if you ever have any questions I'm usually on here once a day checking comments. Always glad to help! thanks again and be safe!
Man you are what I was looking for! Very thorough and I wasn’t confused by anything which by the way doesn’t take much for me! Thank you!
Thats awesome John! Glad the video helped you and hopefully saves you some money!
Absolutely great explanation in your video. I recently purchased a '17 Street Glide and I'm looking forward to saving some bucks!
Thank you Gary! Glad the video helped...always nice to not throw away money to the dealership for things you can do at home pretty easily.
As ALWAYS THE BEST INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS ON YOU TUBE!!! If you want to learn the correct way to do things you will learn it right here. Total professional. Thank you Sir for another fantastic video.
Thank you so much, David! Always glad to help!
Great video. Very thorough and professional
Thank you john...glad to help!
Great overview. My view is since I have it up and ready, might as well do the complete fluid change.
yeah the 5,15 and 20k services are tedious..what i do is every other oil change do a 3 hole...makes it easy to remember and nothing wrong with fresh fluids a little early.
Steve AS ALWAYS...You nailed it. I do my own services as well and do it exactly as you just showed. The only difference is...I refuse to use a Harley Oil filter.
Harley filters are made by FRAM (Death in a can) which is THE WORST oil filter there is. The only other option is to use a Chrome KnN.
AGAIN like oil...thats another argument.
Thing is...youde be surprized how many people dont know the difference in filters.
Us Mechanics and motorheads know!!!
Thanks again for the outstanding content.
Thank you Sir! Never really had an issue with the HD versions but I usually run the Amsoil filters...do you happen to know the efficiency rating at what micron level for the k&n? without me having to do a bunch of research lol let me know...all I could ever find on the HD is 5 microns but that means nothing to me if it doesn't tell me an efficiency rating...like 90% efficient at stopping 5 microns? 70? who knows lol
@@sikbaggers ... I get what you're saying lol. But according to KnN... the efficiency rating for their filters depending upon the application is between 25 and 100 microns. The thing that I like about their filter is there is you can use conventional oil as well as synthetic And still have the same level of protection. I have been an auto technician for 45 yearsAnd I refuse to use a frame oil filter on my car or any for any car what alone on my sled. Working on cars over the years I have for the years I have done my research just like you with bikes and found that frame is the worst filter out there. The only thing that they have is a paper element inside inside and I lot of times the Element just decentegrates Leaving no kind of protection at all shouldn't at all in the element element after it disintegrates ends up in your engine With no way to filter it out.
Wow what a great job you do. Thanks for all your help.. so thorough and professional.
thank you neil...glad to help!
best 3 hole oil change video I've seen. Very thorough...
grateful to have helped! thanks for checking us out.
first time doing own oil change, exactly the perfect video I was looking for. realized the 5 quart kit I bought doesn't give me enough oil to do transmission also. will buy another quart and do that now. awesome video!
yeah alot of kits will say "twin cam" or "M8" but are short on fluids...glad the video helped!
I just add enough oil in filter to roll and wet media and not spill when installing filter, thanks for sharing this video and process to taking care of and getting to enjoy and know the M8 Touring series. Ride on
Thank you for checking it out and the comment! Much appreciated!
This is the best video ive seen doing this , thanks for the help , im a rookie, i believe i can do it myself now, lol ,thanks for explaining everything perfectly,
Hey roger glad to help man...you'll save tons of money! Thanks for watching!
just bought a 2022 street bob 114. i will be coming back to this many times.
nice! Save some serious money while also learning your machine!
Thanks for the video. Doing my first 1000 mile change next week. Just ordered the stuff I need and now know how by watching your video. Also subscribed to your channel. Good stuff.
Great video. You obviously have many years of experience. One little thing, I think the trans fill plug/dipstick torque is 25~75 inch lbs. not foot lbs...
Is it?
Yeah. I just busted the head off my dipstick.
I have 22,400 miles on my 2021 Street Glide and just payed for the last oil change yesterday... I'm over it...
Thank you for helping illuminate my fears of doing this....but hopefully I will not have to get my filter off with a chisel 😮
Great video
🏜️✊🏼
Thank you for sharing your experience! HD's prices for maintenance can be frustrating for sure. I'm glad that the information provided helped alleviate some of your fears. The goal is to provide useful guidance and insights to make tasks like oil changes easier and less daunting. Hopefully, you won't have to resort to using a chisel to remove the filter..that really sucked but was a rare instance of an HD dealership over tightening the filter on a previous oil change. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding your motorcycle maintenance or any other related topics, feel free to ask. I'm here to assist you and provide the information you need.
@@sikbaggers As with Derby cover, I make sure I can get oil filter off BEFORE draining. Love the videos!
I do not have a service manual yet.. how any ounces for transmission and how many ounces for the primary?? Thanks @@sikbaggers
Agreed about that damn filter!! Makes you wonder what Harley and some shops use to tighten that damn thing! Thanks for the right to the point detailed maintenance video! Without the rap in the background! Liked and subscribed
Thank you Jason! Much appreciated sir.
Appreciate your help. You have enabled me to do this myself. Consider yourself an enabler. 😜
😂 Ill take that! Glad the video helped!!
I still wish you were my neighbor but I'm glad I can simply look on the internet and your channel IS SIK no pun intended thanks for sharing
I followed this video and Bob's your uncle perfect and clean job thanks for sharing
Im glad to help!! Save some money and spend it on other cool stuff for your sled !!
I only have hot on jiffy stand on my dipstick. Thank you for the detailed video. Really appreciate it
yes some bikes have different dip sticks and your very welcome...glad to help!
I’m a new right and have a 18 fat boy with the 114 m8 and I’m fixing to do my service before the spring and was contemplating on taking it to Harley but after watching this video I think I’m going to save the money and do it my self. I called a couple dealers around me and it was like 5-600 dollars for the service.
yes its very easy to do. Youll be done a lot quicker than you think and have that extra money to buy cool stuff for your bike instead of giving it back to HD
Great video man gonna try my first oil change here shortly just did a Cam install over the past couple weeks when I had spare time after work
if you can do the cam install the oil change will be a breeze. thanks for checking it out man..happy holidays!
Ite. I just did an oil change on my Ultra Limited. I found that it takes 6 quarts exactly. I put 4 qts in the engine, and I did like you did with a graduated cylinder to get 28 ounces and 30 ounces, and then put the rest of the oil from THOSE containers in the engine. Took it for a short ride, checked the engine and trans oil, and the levels are perfect!
Sure appreciate your video Sir!
PS. I tried the foil trick on the oil filter. Still made a bloody fn mess on the garage floor. LOL
Hey robert thanks for the comment man and for checking out the video...yeah that tin foil trick can be a mess too..using one of those funnels designed for that is also kinda tricky to get in there...best way is to stuff a bunch of old rags in there and twist out as fast as you can and let the rags soak it up.
I recently decided to DIY tune up on my 2018 RGS, this video was so helpful and I really appreciate all the tips and tricks. I'm also using the Syn 3. Only gripe is no spark plug instructions, let me know if yall have a DIY video on that. Great instructional DIY!!! you guys rock!
Thanks for the great video I just bought a 22 low rider S and even though I have a pretty good idea on the steps to change the oils you had a couple great suggestions I will be trying when I do the next change
Funel ordered 🙋♂️ lol. Appreciate it Steven. I don't know if I just haven't ever paid any attention but never seen a funel like that with the caps, that's pretty cool an easy to keep clean. 👍
Nice...yeah I lve that funnel..its a little small on one end so it seeps slow but man it saves a mess in the cabinet
Brake Cleaner works great for cleaning up the oil filter mess. That’s what we use at the Dealership
yes sir...keep tons of that stuff around...grab it cheap at local parts places when they run sales lol
Thanks Steve didn’t really think I’d get a reply . I wanted to use Amsoil but didn’t know if some better.
Amsoils been pretty good to me so far.
Doing the Lord's work with this video
Thank you John! Much appreciated!
I've been on the fence about buying a Harley because of all the maintenance fee stories I hear about. This was a huge help to know doing it yourself is not a big deal. Now the other question is can I trust the engines to keep going? So hard to trust it when I see oil sumping issues and things like that.
Hi, you said that you appreciate everyone that watches your videos well I would like to say that I appreciate you for your experience, helpful tips, and your time. Thanks again, JR Boise ID
thank you, James..im glad the videos have helped...be safe!
Finally someone outside the aviation world that understands ONE CLICK ON A TORQUE WRENCH. Double clicking is over torqueing.
yeah....blows my mind and ill have guys argue with me that it doesnt....its common sense lol
Used this for my oil change today, worked like champ thank you
Exactly the same way I do a 3 hole change on my Me , well done Steven💯👊🏽😎
Thank you for checking it out buddy
@@sikbaggers anytime brother💯
You were spot on with the pipe dope. All 3 plugs had a ton of that tape on them. Followed your vid step by step very helpful!
awesome video on how to, to the point simple and spot on. thank you for doing what you do
You're very welcome Anthony! Thank you for checking it out...always glad to help!
Thank you for the video. I greatly appreciate the transmission explanation relating to dry and wet fill. I had no clue what that meant when I read it in the manual. Be and ride safe.
Glad it helped PD!! Be safe!
Awesome video with NO BS! Thx
thank you...glad to help!
Great video ! Everything you need to know to do the 3 whole oil change ! This is the video you need to watch ! Thnx !
Sorry for the late reply, I just got back from Sturgis..thank you for checking it out!
Nice video on the M8 3 hole oil change. I fid this on my old 88 and this is just a modern version of that.
Thank you robert and yes..not too much has changed...bolt location and levels of course but still pretty simple to do at home.
I love the towel disclaimer!
Thank you Steve , thanks for all the great videos .
Youre very welcome!
excellent ,thorough video! Very great explanation all the way through.
Glad to help and thank you for checking it out!
Im a bit nervous to change my oil on my road glide 114...but I need to learn...thanks for this video definitely learning
Hey man....completely understandable...I do have a oil change video on the 14 -16 103 also...its basically exactly the same though...but let me know if you have any questions...this is definitely something anyone can do at home.
Just purchased my first harley 2023 road glide coming from a metric 2004 nomad. Harley made it sound like rocket science to change the oil. They did say they would do the labor portion free for the first oil change so I may let them. But im a killer shade tree mechanic who actually enjoys a sunday morning oil change so I will be doing mine from then on. This video is great, I subbed, liked and saved this video for when it is time to do the changes. I'm assuming the oil type/weight is all the same for all 3 holes? I'll be sure to look in my manual, and I didn't know that there were different intervals, ill look closely at that as well. Excellent tips all around, this vid will make it a breeze. Looking foward to checking out some more of your videos.
Great video, thanks. I'm about to do my own oil changes on my 2018 Harley davidson Breakout due to Harley charging an arm and a leg.
Yes..they are quite expensive...and this is so easy...take your time and after doing ti once youll be way more confident the next time. Super easy to do
Steve very well put presentation. I always enjoy watching your video’s👍🏾 Keep your knees in the breeze.😎
Thank you Daryl!
I ride harley in my dreams, thank you now I know how to keep her in topcondition 🎉
Youre very welcome....glad to help!
All fluid levels are spot on. Excellent instructions, easy to follow. Saved me a good chunk of dough.
One remark: if you use a vented dip stick that happens to move with you from bike to bike, make sure the measurements are taken with the original OEM dipstick or you screw up the oil change (ask me how I know 😂). I thought I overfilled until I realized that the dipstick is with me since my 96ci days.
Thank you for checking it out and the comment and yeah I probably would have done the same thing and then freaked out lol oh well lesson learned and thank you for sharing that
I appreciate ya'll big time! Great video and explanation 🇺🇸🇺🇸
thank you Mike, glad to help!
I love your videos , very informative and detailed. Can you possibly do a short clip video on how to properly set that torque wrench
Thank you David! There is a great video that explains it right here on YT...check this link..I have started the timer on the video for you in the link so it skips the BS and gets to the settings...you can always choose to watch the hole thing but starting here is the best...I hope this helps! ruclips.net/video/EJH1Fp3yM7E/видео.html
@@sikbaggers thank you Steve for your help .I truly enjoy your videos and content you provide to the community. You’re a good dude . Thx again bud 🤙🏼
Totally agree with you on Harley WAY over-torquing the oil filter. I did my first DIY oil change on my M8 last week. I found Teflon tape or something like it all over my drain plug and the oil filter was on so tight that my Harley oil filter wrench skipped off. I thought the wrench must be the wrong size. Nope, I had crushed the top of the filter to the point that the wrench was just spinning. Ended up using a shop rag inside the filter wrench, tapping it on with a rubber mallet, then using a breaker bar on top of my ratchet handle to get the filter loose. Then I spent five minutes getting the old filter off the wrench.
Moral of the story: Harley needs to stop telling their wrenches to over-torque the oil filter. I bet they do that so people will bring their bikes in to the dealer for service.
Ive learned that the M8, for some reason, has a way of tightening itself over time too...not sure why...even bikes Ive changed the oil on and know I have not over tightened it, came back to me for the next oil change and was tight as shit...asked my buddy, a tech at HD, and he said the same thing..they all come back tight...so we get to deal with that now lol
Interesting! Hadn’t heard that one yet. Appreciate you taking the time to reply.
Think you sir you done an outstanding job on your video. You took your time and explained every step great and added a cpl extras to help . I give you a thumbs up and a A+
Thank you so much Aaron!
When checking the trans oil level the manual says to put the dip stick in and not screw it in. insert the pit stick until the threads touch.
From the service manual 1.Park motorcycle on a level surface on jiffy stand. 2.See Figure 1. Remove transmission filler plug/dipstick. Wipe dipstick clean. 3.Install filler plug/dipstick until O-ring contacts the case. Do not tighten. 4.See Figure 2. Remove filler plug/dipstick. Check lubricant level on dipstick. Proper oil level is between the Add (A) (1) and Full(F) (2) marks
Im not sure what year of bike you have but this is for the 19' M8 but always go by what your manual says. Please make sure yours says not to screw it in and doesnt say do not tighten...huge difference.
Thank you for an excellent fluid change video. Glad I found your's.
youre very welcome and grateful to have been a help.
Loved the 3 hole video. Very detailed and easy to follow. Do you have any vids on a coolant change. I have a 2019 Ultra Limited Low
Glad to help on the oil change man...im sorry but right now I dont...Im working on getting one in here just for that though
Go to your local john deere store and buy a strap oil filter wrench that you can put a 1/2”ratchet on. Had way better luck with them than any plier or cap wrench. John deere has best quality one ive seen is why i recommend them. We only use strap wrenches at the farm for big filters on equipment
thanks for the heads up on that...we have a john deere here in town and ill stop by and grab one
Had the same issues the other day getting my filter off that the dealer put on because I busted a hole in my oil cooler from the previous owner having it too tight. My filter wrench kept slipping like yours and like you was inventing new cuss words. My wife suggests I put one of my red shop rags on the inside, it worked great with no slippage, filter came right off.
Yeah man that always sucks...Ive had one that I had to drop the oil cooler and beat off with a literal chisel..Ill never understand it
Thanks this was perfectly done and very helpful.
Glad the video helped! Thanks for checking it out..much appreciated.be safe.
Thanks just saved $350. Appriciate the torque specs.
Sorry for the late reply, I just got back from Sturgis...glad the video helped!
Another great video. Thanks! God Bless!!✌️😎👍
Thank you Ken!
Hey bro off topic but value your expertise….. when upgrading clutch, compensator…. What upgraded tensioner do you prefer and why? Thanks! Trying to pull my laundry list together for my upgrades.
In your video, you say to torque the transmission dipstick to 50 foot pounds. Its 50 inch/pound. huge difference.everything else is great. fallowed everything step by step.
I take my wifes kitchen towels because I have, said death wish!! 😂😂
Plus she's got towels for every holiday anybody can make up and we always seem to need new every year. 🤣🤣
LOL..same man...same!! We have stacks of towels...every now and then one "slips" out the door...whoops!
@@sikbaggers Right? BUAHAHAHAAAAA!!
You explain everything in so much detail and it's enjoyable to watch all your how-to videos. Well, I did I bought a Road King for Christmas and traded in my Dyna. My question to you is I bought the 5 oil changes when I purchased it. My thinking is, it's under warranty so they can look the bike over and fix things as I ride it, I always after the warranty is over start doing everything myself. I always use syn 3 in all 3 holes, Harley dealer told me they stopped doing that and put syn gear oil in 2 holes, I hit 1200 miles and the first service is after the holidays should I tell them my way, or their way. Because I will have to do it that way? Your thought on the syn oil versus syn gear oil in 2 holes? Thank you, Merry Christmas!!!!
I love the one uga duga is all you need!
How long till you have your 1 Ugga Dugga shirts for sale? 🤣
haha hey Mark...might draw some up for the next batch
Steve...if you supply it....they will buy it!!!!
My 2017 street glide transmission takes 1 quart 28 oz just doesn't do it. My 06 I would leave the transmission level low or it would leak out of the shift shaft o-ring.
I’d buy one in a second.
Thank you for saying “make sure you check the tranny fluid on the jiffy stand” checked mine on the lift and it was bone dry 🤔

one big mistake you made is you said the transmission fill plug is torque to 50 ft pounds and it should be inch pounds, not ft pounds big difference !!
