Man when you drain all of the fluid, get you an extendable magnet form the parts store (the little ones) and keep swiping it in the drain hole, until you get none or very few shavings on the magnet, rmember to wipe it on a towel each time. Even though the auto tranny in my car was rebuilt like 5-6 years ago, I found some tiny shavings in my tranny, but thats slightly different. But after that go refill it, and drive it around and see.

Oh yeah remember I have tons of 3gee parts from my 89 lxi parts car, so if ya need anythign let me know.
