im trying to put transmission fluid in my engine and I told my buddy there is a small hole under the hood where you put the fluid..

Well we jack the car up and we take the right passengar tire out and tried to put the fluid on the side of the transmission....

There's no fluid in my tranny so now I'm stuck at home and I have to work in the morning...

Can anyone help me out on where I need to put the transmission fluid?

I wasted a bottle and a half already and I'm really pissed off....

No store has a funnel that has a small hole at the end....

I have a 94 civic si hatch with a d16z6 motor

that works perfectly...thanks

 

or you can just use a tube that goes through your fill hole... and run it to the top

 

easier through the vss...same difference

 

Just make sure to take the actual fill plug out so that the excess spills out of it. That's how the proper level is obtained.

Correct, I believe its 1.8 qts for SOHC, 2.5 qts for DOHC?

*Sigh*, u shouldn't know that information off the top of ur head :-P

 

wheres the fill hole

 

Above (5-6") and to the left (1-2") of the drain plug.

 

You can also use the vent tube with the cap on it. It has a fairly big opening to use.

I did that on my f22, make sure the fill bolt is out for runout and level measuring.

Worked perfectly for me after my pump broke.

F22 takes 1.8 as well.

 

can you put the fluid through a dip stick?
