I agree with das you do need a manaul. Hanes is ok, But I prefer Chiltons.
Anyways raise the drive's sideand put on jackstands remove the drive's side tire. There is a black plug in the trans on the front side of the trans (front of the car). Grab with a pair of pliers (long 45 degree needle nose pliers worked best for me) and pull the plug out.Use your pinky and stick in the hole. Like a dip stick. You should be able to cover your the whole end of your pinky in gear oil. If not then add some. I recommend get about a foot and a half of 1/4 inch or 3/8 inch vaccume line to make it easier to fill.
Me I just filled it up until it ran out pretty good then put the plug back in. Then clean up mess. I also recommend having a dip pan under the trans. And working with 90 weight gear oil can be fun but is worst in the winter. I would setclosed bottle inhottest water posible. The hotter you stand the easier to squeeze into your trans.
THANKS AERO ILL GO GET SOME GEAROIL TOMORROW AND CHECK THIS OUT!!!

Again Thanks To All Of You But As I Said I Did Not See In The My Chiltons Manual Anywere Were it Gave Instructions To Do This...Therefore [:'(]and i did read it

ORIGINAL: boxerjl2

SPUD WHY WOULDNT YOU JUST GET A NEW MANUAL TRANNY?? instead of all the work to go auto??
i didnt think there was a need to spend the reason on another mnaual tranny when i had a whole front clip sitting in the garage......only about a dozen bolts, new shifter linkage, new wiring harness, and a new pcm and it was all swapped over....only took about 8 hours to do.....besides, for my job it was alot easier to drive an auto then a manual....but now i just dont care

there usually isnt a section in the manual about adding manual tranny oil....instead you will have to look under a section about replacing the tranny or replacing the axels
