that's the only way that I know of to fill the fluid up on a trans. and yes that's how you check the fluid level. just remember don't overfill it you'll end up making it slip. It's measured in pints not quarts

I would venture to say that it was the kick down rod that also tells it when to shift up or down. that van has the old style trans. with over drive.
