ok! So I'll answer my own post =P
Apparently, it appears, to my dismay, that the mercury that held my transmission originally had a rod type shifter linkage. This created a necessity to put the selector arm up instead of down like on the fox's and I had completely failed to grasp the significance of this. Apparently, I had completely reversed the shifter so Park was low and low was park so I basically dry started my automatic in low gear and filled it up in gear. yay me. I wonder how much I wrecked it. But, if nothing else, the lights now all work and I even decided to hook up the neutral saftey on the starter.
Does anyone know which of the three ports on the passenger side of the AOD is the hookup for the pressure guage? The forwardmost one is stamped FWD and the rearmost is DIR, so I figured the unmarked middle one is the missing TV port. It seems to be giving me line pressure and hovers at 60 psi but granted this was in low gear with the parking brake holding it back =P . Any ideas?
