I let it settle down a little bit after driving it this morning and adding fluid and when I pull the stick without it running I seem to see fluid better than before.

How critical is the level, is there any leeway? Obviously I may have been 4 or so quarts low before and it still seemed to operate fine.
I'm heading into the mountains next week towing my blazer so it is going to get a workout and I would hate to be too full and start puking fluid under heavy load in the mountains.
Thanks
