cmblockhusI would like to change the oil in a 1951 Chrysler with a Fluid Drive Transmission, I have heard the oil for the converter is with the oil pan for the engine and takes about 13 quarts?
Is it all drained with the pan plug? Do you drain the converter separate?
WOW over 50 years in the business and can't do a oil change,pretty sad.

Any help would be nice.

thanks

BradleyGCURTIS, Nice to see you post.. I miss you my friend!!

Sorry, but I was only 4 years old when that car came out. LOL

Your friend.. Brad

phil2237Should be an inspection cover on the bottom of the bellhousing, remove it, rotate the torque convertor around till you find the plug on the convertor, remove and drain.

cmblockhusHi guys:
I have the owners hand book from the glove box it is a Fluid-Matic Drive Transmission, the Capacities section says that the engine oil is 5 quarts plus one for the filter and the fluid-matic refill is only 3 pints. Just found this book today and also found a service manual online which I ordered.
So guess is not the Hy-Drive of 53 54 fame.

Thanks for all the help.
Hi Brad, yes I know I have not posted in a long while but not having a Prowler makes life boring at times.

Thanks again
Have a great day

Curtis
