To answer your question, it's because the torque converter doesn't drain. It has the other 4+ qts. You only drain the base pool of about 3 qts of the total 7.4 quarts each time . With subsequent mixing and re-draining you can get to: 1 change = about 40% new fluid; 2nd change and you end up with 66% new fluid; 3rd change and you have 80% new fluid.
still thats 1/5 of the old crap still in there. A 4th change means that there is only 11% of the old stuff in your baby's diaper. Ugg. This is tough on a compulsive.
