No matter how you check oil level hot cold running it’s full. Will continue to blow oil out even at 1 gallon short.

This is a classic case of pnp switch and aftermath of this switch causing muddy fluid and clogging solenoids but still don’t understand the blowing
Out fluid part causing the biggest part of the damage to clutches and allowing trans to slip like hell. And destroying the transmission further.

Where is all this oil being captured and stored inside and allowing the
Pick up to have no oil and run pump dry to where there is no rev or fwd gears. Shut it off and wait for oil to drain back to pick up and then you get rev. And forward back again. Hasn’t anyone experienced this ???
