Changing 6 spd Trans Fluid

[KYStroker]

When I refill my 6 spd trans do I have to remove the shift tower to refill? How much do I put in?

[thbd77]

there is a plug on the side half way up to fill. when it runs out it is full

no you do not need to remove the shifter. There are 2 plugs in the tranny. The bottom drain plug and the upper fill plug (on passenger side) Fill through fill plug until fluid is level with bottom of hole (pretty much the same as if you were adding fluid to a rearend.) You do not want fluid to be running out excessively but you want enough you can feel it with your finger inside the case.

how many quarts should it hold?

[MrJohnWayne]

Hmm can't remember off top of my head. Check owners manual. It'll tell you.
