I just wanna say......
DO NOT get freaking ATF in your eye. I was filling a transfer case and the rubber hose I was using popped off. Not a big deal except this was on a lift and I was directly under the hose that popped off. And I tool the full force of outflow in my right eye.
First, note to self, apologize to wife.
Second, my eye is dry and irritated, and my vision keeps going blurry. Doesn't really hurt, just irritated. But for those of you who haven't tried some ATF in the eye, DON'T!!!!!

That does suck. I can't say that I have enjoyed many automotive fluids in my eye. Good thing the irritation usually passes.

Been there, sucks! Keep flushing it out, saline helps dry up the film from the fluid
