About 1/2 inch surface coat in reservoir. I used a turkey baster to pull a bunch off, transfered it to a clear bottle. On settling the oil phase looks a little pinkish, which makes me think tranny fluid. Mine IS water-cooled, and top line appears to have chronic leaks at exchanger in lower rad hose.
I'm going to do the experiment, mix engine oil and antifreeze then ATF and AF in clear bottles to see if I can tell the difference, cp to extracted stuff and see where to go next. Any clues re: plumbing of ATF cooling system would be appreciated, this is one sub-system I haven't encountered/considered.
