Transmission Fluid
Is there a easy way to fill my manual transmission up with the fluid? They say that you undo the nut and fill it up till it comes up, but thats not very much and I'm curious if I don't have enough in there.

Go to your local parts store and pickup a funnel with a flexible hose on the end. I've seen them at about every parts store I've been too. If you know where the fill bolt is, just remove it and start pouring. An empty D-series tranny takes a little under 2 quarts, a B-series is a little over 2. I recommend you spend the money and pickup Honda MTF, it's $5 a bottle but you only change it every year or two.

Hehe well I've been doing some reading and since my manual kinda got toast in my dads shop fire, it turns out there are two holes for the fluid. A drain plug and a fill hole. I was putting the fluid into the drain plug! Guess I better be going to get some transmission fluid!
