leaking trans 700-r4

Does any know if I take out the speed sensor(need to replace O-ring) if the majority of the fluid will come out or will just a little of the fluid will come out. I am trying not to get a total bath here.
Any suggestions?

thanks

You may lose up to maybe a half quart. There is fluid there, but not much.

Teds92rs once told me that when you remove your vehicle speed sensor, try to jack up the car from the rear axle for 2 reasons:
1. You may be able to have more room to move around down there while you do your job.
2. If you jack up the vehicle from the back, the trans fluid will flow toward the front of the transmission, meaning you will not lose that much fluid if any at all.

I hope your operation goes well, good luck.
