a much easier method to fill the transmission other than using the suction/fill gun is to run a piece of rubber hose attach to a funnel from the top of the engine bay down to the fill hole. think of it like giving the transmission a "oil bong"

Thanks for the post.
Just remember to replace the crush washer with a new one and torque the fill and drain plugs to spec. I'm a big fan of the fluid suction/fill syringe.....been using one for years to fill diffs and transfer cases on domestic cars and trucks. I find that the funnel method tends to make a big mess if you're not paying attention when you're topping off and it's tuff to get into tight spots.....plus you may need a second guy around to fill as you hold the clear plastic hose is the fill hole and watch to see when it's filled. I just hate when it's filled and you still have fluid in the 18" long clear plastic hose. I also have one of those cheapo fluid transfer pumps and that also works pretty well. |
