What size tools for the drain/fill of autom. transmission?

OK, I think I figured part of it out. The hose from the pump must have blocked of the bottoom of the filler hole allowing more to go in before it started overflowing. Once the fluid started coming out, I pulled out the hose now allowing all the overage to come out at once.
To make sure I had the right level, I opened the filler hole (without the engine running) and let the "overage" drain; about 1.5 quarts came out. Once it was almsot done dripping, I started the truck back up and went through the gears slowly (not quite spike's 5 seconds though) a few times. I then crawled back under and started pumping. I was able to get about another quart in before it started to drip out again. Closed it up and voila! If I did my calculations right, there should be 4 quarts in it, exactly the same amount that came out initially. Time for a beer...
