Should I add some fluid to the converter before installing, or will the pump fill it up fast enough.
Thanks

Dumping some fluid in it is a good idea IMO. Dont fill it to the brim and it wont go puking out the snout when you turn it on its side to install. Probably wont hurt not doing it but what chance it? Dump a quart in there and be better safe than sorry
