turbotime

On a dseries where does the tranny fluid go to fill it, and where is the hole to drain it? Trying to get some synchromesh in there but dont have the HELMS.

To fill it, there is a 17mm bolt kinda above and behind the passenger axle.

To drain it, there is a 1/2" drive bolt that you remove and the fluid will drain.

For some reason I can't think today and believe it's the 1/2" drive, cuz I think I'm trippin.

Their is also a place you can add from the top of the tranny. That's how I did mine. A lot easier. Do a search and you will find a write up including pictures showing you how to do it.

Find the fill plug. It is seen here right next to the inner joint of the axle. It has a crush washer so if you loose it your'e screwed. Honda doesn't usually stock this one. I chose not to loosen my fill plug because I know my tranny takes 2.3 qts., but the way you fill it is to fill until fluid dribbles from the fill hole so this is optional if it makes you feel better.



Here's where the trick comes in that will save you headahces. Usually you have to ghetto-rig a funnel and tube to fill the tranny in the fill hole which really sucks. My method is really easy.

1. Remove the vent cap found near the front/top of your tranny:



2. Find the Speed sensor located on the topside of the very back of your tranny:



3. Take the 10mm on a big-*** extension and remove the bolt (it's the orangish one in my pic - yours probably won't be oragnish):





4. Now see that big-*** hole left after you move the speed sensor out of the way? Use the funnel and fill through that hole! By the way, no need to unplug the speed sensor - just move it out of the way.





5. Fill up with specified amount (B series is 2.3 U.S quarts, D series is 1.8 U.S quarts)or until fluid dribbles from the fill hole below.



6. Put the speed sensor back in, tighten up the fill plug (if you loosened it).

7. Replace the vent cap and you're done!
