The converter is like a fat bottle lying on its side, full up to the level of the neck. Once you separate the Tip from the engine, just carefully slide the converter out and turn the "neck" upwards. Take it to an oil collection receptacle of an appropriate size and turn it over so the "neck" is down. Let it sit for a while as the fluid will take a few min to drain. Once empty, put the converter back onto the Tip, being sure it is fully engaged in the front pump. When the car is back together, you will need to do a filter change and the normal bottom fill until the level is correct at temperature.
