Subject:85 4spd tranny fluid
From:David J. Bohannan

Hi all.

Don't have the manual, but from examining my tranny, it appears as if
there is a plug on the passenger side of the tranny (giant hex) for
access to check fluid level/ add/ change fluid.

Am I missing something? (please say yes)

I also found in the archives to use 80/80w/90.any preferred brand???

I can tell this one has been leaking for a while around the linkage
input and the output shafts.but there is NO indication of that hex bolt
being removed.rust.anyone know what size hex tool I am going to need to
get that plug out????

Dave

85 4spd
