7: drop the input trans cooler line into the other bucket
8: fill the *input* bucket with trans fluid
9: start the vehical and put the trans in 1st (make sure its on jackstands
10: remove the input line from the bucket when bucket looses approx 3qrts of fluid

So just to clarify...

At setp 12, it's okay to let the tranny starve of oil for a few seconds? Aren't you depriving it of oil by letting the thing sputter?

Why is it necessary to fill w/ fluid for this step?

by filling with new fluid on the input side you will be forcing out bad fluid in which would normally durring a drain and fill would stay inside the trans.

Don't forget to flush out the transmission cooler lines on the radiator with compressed air or clean fluid.

Also, replacing the filter requires removal of the fluid pan, so it would be better to replace the filter before flushing the transmission. That way you don't waste all that nice clean expensive fluid when you open the pan. True you will be getting some dirty fluid on a clean filter, but since the filter lasts 60k miles or so, and the fluid in the trans has already been through the old filter a million times, that shouldn't be much of an issue.
