How to change tranny fluid?
I remember seeing a very good DIY on here, and I was just wondering if anyone can post the link? I tried searching but didn't have luck with any threads with pictures, like the one I am referring to.
Thanks in advance.

Use a ratchet to unbolt it and put it through your VSS(Vehicle speed sensor) 2-3 Quarts Syncromesh.

The fill plug on my both of my B series are 17mm I believe, it may or may not be the same on a D series

This write up is about replacing axles, but it also shows how to replace trans fluid:

Re: How to change tranny fluid? (mcvtec)
Perfect. Just what I wanted to hear.
Is it possible to do this without taking off the tire? Only reason I am asking is because I am at school, and will be doing this on the street. I believe my jackstands are at home..

Re: How to change tranny fluid? (mcvtec)
Very good to hear. So I can do this using just a jack, 3/8 drive wrench, and a 17mm socket?
Now, next question. Is it possible to do this without jacking up the car? My car is stock height.

Yes, you can do this with all 4 wheels touching the ground, as long as you have a container (to catch the old oil) short enough to fit under your car.
On a side note, I normally use a length of clear tubing and a funnel to refill the tranny, keep adding oil 'til it spills out the fill hole (fool proof).

Thanks for all the help. I will be buying a funnel and tubing this week. How big is the fill hole, just to make sure the tubing I get isn't too big.

GM Syncromesh is also a great choice for replacement.

If you are in a bind, Honda MTF is the same as 10w30.
