In my hatch, my b16 obd0 cable trans cluthc **** the bed, I swapped it out, but couldnt get the VSS disconnected so I just unhooked it from the dash. Now since I cant get the VSS out, where do I fill with oil?
Also, about not being abel to get the vss out, the whole VSS thing looks weird, its got 2 prongs on it but nothing going to them, and there a 10mm bolt below it. Does it come apart soehow? Are those lines supposed to get used?

 

There should be a vent pipe at the top (it looks like a hollow metal dowel). I use a 2-liter bottle, a syrup pump (like for espresso syrup), and a clear silicone hose. I then pump the fluid into the transmission from there.

 

Well im not loking at it now, but where my VSS was, there was 2 copper type barbs coming out. do they lead into the right spot?

I dont wanna screw this up

 

Just fill via the fill hole using a funnel and some tubing.

 

I didnt even see a freakin fill hole lol. I dont thinkt I can access it in my chassis anyways. Any quick way form the top?

 

Well, you need to access the fill hole anyway in order to ensure that you have the correct amount of fluid in the transmission. You should fill it until the fluid beings to overflow out of the hole.

 

Theres a barb ontop of my trans to the right front of the clutch cable bracket, b[probably 1/2" ID and 2" sticking out"

Does it lead into the trans?

 

I'm having trouble envisioning what you're describing, but again, you're going to have to open the fill hole regardless in order to properly fill the transmission.

 

No you dont have to open no fill hole, as I dont even see one, Ive got 3 plugs on the side of my trans, one is the drain plug, one is a 8mm plug that leads to a clip of some sort but the hole is blocked off, and a 3/8" ratchet plug to another blocked off hole

I know how much oil the tranny takes, so I just need to know what passage from the top leads to where im going!!

 

Does this help? (Don't know if this pic is showing up, please let me know if it is not...)

There is definitely a fill hole on your transmission (see the photo posted above), and if you want to end up with the correct fluid level, you should use it. If you want to simply estimate using a certain set amount of fluid, that's fine, but it isn't the recommend method and could result in an under- or over-filled transmission.

 

Aint nothing there, lookin right at it. Definetely nothing on the side

 

Can you post a photo?
