The 94 had a quart and a half too much and the 97, just as over-filled? It had a transmission service 53k (14 yrs) ago with tech noting complete fluid replacement. Why the dipstick fill levels were not followed mystifies me, I'm talking over an inch too deep & it's not rocket science. Solid argument for doing your own service work!!
Was it running when you checked it? It needs to be running, and have gone thru the gears when checked.....if not running it will read high
