Just one question, do I have to move the gear shifter through each range before I'm able to check the fluid? I checked the fluid a few times and I only moved the shifter once. Maybe I got a incorrect reading?
When I drove it around the block I couldn't feel it slip. I will keep an eye on it, hopefully my tranny is fine...

If you drove it around then thats the same thing. I was just telling you that once you put in the fluid you should go manually shift thru the gears to spread it out through the valvebody and the rest of the tranny and then go check the level. Either way works if you were just a bit low, but if you ever serviced it (fluid and filter) then I would do it the way I explained to make sure you have enough before driving it.
