thats not the fill hole according to the manual, thast the "check fluid level" hole.

I'm asking for the FILL HOLE.

the fuild check hole is the fill hole. There is also a hole just to the side of the starter. It is kind of small but will do.

I have a b-series. But I don't think it does. You just need to remove the battery I think. IT should be a 14mm with a long extention. And you need to crank on it pretty hard to break it loose. Or that is just what I have experienced. BUt I have filled it up there many times. Good luck.

Yah, like those guys said the fill hole is also the check fluid level. The way you know you're at the right level is when the fluid you are pumping in starts overflowing out the fill hole. If you looked at the amount of fluid you put in I bet it would equal the amount of fluid you put in once it starts overflowing. For example, my tranny specifies 2.3 quarts, and that's about how much fluid I pumped in.

Just make sure the tranny/car is level or close to it when you fill through the fill hole. I think it's easier to fill through that hole as long as you have a pump and long tube.

Any local autoparts store should have a long tube with a shut off valve on the end that screws onto most oil/tranny fluid containers. It costs about $5 ,it works really good with the valve because you line up the hole and turn the valve at the base to get the oil flowing.

Thats the Fill Hole you Dill Hole! Heh, yeah, the big nut in the center, you have to remove the intake/battery tray/starter then its very easy. Open the fill level check so you can see when your full and your done. - Darrell

Fill through the VSS hole. No need for weird funnels. Open the check fluid level hole and when oil begins pouring out, stop filling.

Yes, you have the level hole open. When it starts flowing out, stop pouring and let the little bit that's too much run out the level hole for a minute. Then put it all together.
