DRAINING POLICY

In keeping with our continuing “Be Green” efforts, it is important that you review our Powertrain Core Return Policies. The procedure to properly drain engine and transmission core units prior to shipping back to Mopar is outlined below.

One of the most common chargeback reasons is improperly drained cores. This standard outlines the fact that all cores must be drained of fluid or a chargeback of $75 per core will be assessed. Adherence to this policy is necessary to protect the environment and comply with environmental regulations. Our drivers have been instructed to pick up only drained cores.

DRAINING GUIDELINES: All assemblies should be drained on a curbed, coated or lined concrete surface with spill controls, including drip pans and absorbents where necessary. If the draining area is outdoors, it should be covered to prevent rainwater from collecting and prevent contaminated run-off from polluting rain and melting snow. Always ensure that you use a funnel to drain fluids directly into an appropriate storage container for proper disposal in compliance with all local environmental standards.

Drain transmissions by removing both the pan and the drain plug. Drain the torque converter separately by tipping at various angles to remove fluid from the hub. Replace the torque converter, pan and plug after draining. Insert the dipstick in the transmission and tighten all bolts on the oil pan to prevent any residual fluid from leaking.

Drain engine oil by removing the fluid and allowing sufficient time to drain fluid. Insert the dipstick in the engine and tighten all bolts and plugs to prevent any residual leaks.
