I would read up on flushes before I went that direction. Some have no problems with them and some have nightmares.

Two alternatives would be 1) Change the fluid three to four times putting several miles on it between changes. I use a small pump to pump it out the dipstick. You have to do this because you only drain about a third of the fluid when you drain the pan. 2) Disconnect the fluid lines going from the tranny to the cooler and pump it out that way. There is a procedure for this at Allpar.com
