RE: I need help!
You can use a turkey baster if you don't have a suction pump handy. If you're making a trip to the auto parts store, you can pick one up for around $10-$15. They'll come in handy, especially if you're going to change the rear fluid ever. It makes it easy as it has a rubber hose attached to it. I've used a squeezy bottle before but it's tough to get it up around the rear to the fill hole without spilling it all over the place. A Gulden's mustard bottle will work for the trans, if you have none of the other items.
You can fill the trans from the shifter but if you have to take off the fill plug to know when you are topped off, you might as well just fill it from the bottom.
Kevstang87 - I've only been here a few days but I've not seen one post by you that has been of any help. I am not one to start any trouble, especially since I am new on the board but, geez...
An answer like:
"Let me guess your between the ages of 16-18 correct?I dont get how some of you kids dont blow your car up. You must be kidding right "
doesn't exactly tell him how to do it properly, now does it?

RE: I need help!

Alright so thats what i thought and i am not an idiot but that brings me back to my first question, why is it not going down? I did pull the plug and nothing came out, there is no fluid in it because it is brand new. Does it matter where i poor the fluid through the shifter? or what am i doing wrong?

I can't figure out why it wouldn't go down. Sorry 4eye your gonna have to go to autozone and buy the right fill tool (try shifting gears)
Or a turkey baster
JZGT (i've never tried that but it should work)
