Default How to change MTF in a DC5-S?

Could anyone tell me the procedure for change the MTF in an RSX-S. Information I'm looking for:

Location of filler/drain plugs, and process of getting to them.
How you loaded the new fluid. (Pump, long tube, etc).
If there are any "uncommon" things you will need to do.

Basically anything that would be different than changing a b18's fluid.

Thanks

The drain plug is a bolt with a square hole in it. You don't need a socket just the 1/2 inch wrench. The bolt to put the MTF in is the 19 bolt I think. I haven't done it in a while. It's pretty much the same as changing the B series tanny oil.

Thanks, do you know if the plugs are in the same location?

When you mean location of the plugs, are you asking what side they're on? For the DC5 they're on the driver's side. As far as how to fill, I use a long tube(Home Depot clear tube, not sure of size) and a funnel(Safeway). Duct taped the two together. Just fill it until it starts to leak from the fill hole, about 2-3 quarts of MTF. Good luck, I'm probably going to be doing the same thing this weekend.
