I know, I know, I shouldn't need to make a post on how to change your transmission fluid. I have already done this once but I want to swap out for Redline oil to hopefully extend the life of the tranny a little longer. When I did it the first time I used a smaller bottle that I filled with tranny fluid andwedged it up into the trannsmission tunnel to fill it. Although this worked it was a royal pain in the @$$. So I am searching for an easier method. I've been down to napa and advanced auto parts looking far a pump of some kind to no avail. So I was wondering what have you guys rigged up to make this happen. Thanks in advance.

They sell small pumps specifically for doing this at auto stores

Otherwise, use a hand-lotion despenser!

Failing that, just stick a hose on top of the redline bottle.

Get what's called a "syringe." It looks kind of like a gigantice hypodermic needle form a cartoon. It has a big metal tube connected to a flexible hose, and you pull back on a handle to suck the gear lube into the tube, and then put the hose into the fill hole on the trans, and push the handle. Easy.

I took my bottles of royal purple to super lube with me, and paid them ~$10 to replace it for me. I absolutely hate gear oil. I didn't have to worry about getting it on me and making a mess in my carport, or disposing of the old oil.

1. get the bottle of gear oil and poke a hole into it above the level where the oil is.
2. run a clear vinyl hose from the inside of the bottle to the tranny fill hole, use use hand or some other method to keep it semi air tight.
3. run an air hose to the hole made in step one. let the air start going, and watch the gear oil go up to the tranny, the better the seals in step one and two, the faster the oil will go up.
