For future reference Just under 4 quarts filled my transmission to the proper level. The circumstances were as follows; After noticing that I was spraying ATF I came to a stop and shut off the engine within approximately 20 seconds of the trans slipping(?) and not transferring power to the rear wheels.
All this to say, If you find yourself in similar circumstances you lost roughly 4 quarts of ATF. I went under the assumption that I lost at least 3qts and started checking the level after putting in that amount.
