    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Huh, weird. I sorta assumed mine was just a bit small. Oh well, the positive terminal fits super tight so I guess ya win some ya lose some.

    Anyone have an idea on how much atf is needed for a 3.4 drain and fill? I think it was 3 but want to make sure before I drain and don't have enough to fill.

    I looked the terminals up online and apparently they are sold as universal and come with an aluminum shim for if you are going to use them on the negative terminal. I used the provided aluminum shim but even that wasn't enough, I also bought a lead battery terminal shim at Autozone and the terminal wouldn't quite fit right with it.

    It's between three and four. Just take notice that there are cold fill and hot fill marks on the dipstick.

    I Dropped the pan and replaced the filter and cleaned the magnets on mine in a couple hours. I would just do that to get those parts clean.

    I did mine a few months ago too, I think when you drop the pan you get another quart or so, I think I bought 5 for that and only used a little over 4
