how much tranny fluid does a b16 tranny hold?
Just dumped my tranny fluid for synchromesh, it took 2 and 3/4 bottles till it started floeing out of filler hole, my only question is does it make a difference if the car was jacked up in the front when filling, does this effect amount of fluid you can pour in?

The manual calls for 2.3 liters - jacking the front up would have tilted it back a bit, as long as you have at least 2 and a little in there, its fine.

But as MKC said the difference is so minimal that it is irrevelant. Happy Tuning!!!

Let's not turn this into yet another damned GM Synchromesh fluid topic thanks.
2.3 is the correct answer though...

Re: how much tranny fluid does a b16 tranny hold?
if fluid came out of the axle port, it sounds like a bad axle seal. working in independent import repair shop, we always fill a trans until it starts to flow out of the filler plug and call it good.

Re: how much tranny fluid does a b16 tranny hold?
Use Honda MTF, 10W-30 engine oil, or a compatible lightweight synchromesh transmission lubricant such as Amsoil Synthetic Synchromesh MTF 5W-30 or GM Synchromesh. Do not use standard gear oil containing sulfur or boron (75W-80, 80W-90, etc.) because you will cause damage to the transmission.
He was swapping the transmission. The axle was out; there's nothing to seal against.
