How do you put tranny fluid in a stick??

I effectively drained the tranny fluid out of my stang's (yes i have a stang, but im selling it) 3 speed manual tranny, because we had to take the driveshaft out to tow it. I don't konw anything about manual trannys, so I figured I'd ask. Its not all drained, but a good deal of it is. In order to sell it i need to get this taken care of, so what do i do? Thanks-

Tom

I had an 85 Stang 4 speed and I was always told that you have to get under the car and there should be a plug that you take out and you have to stick your finger in it, if you get fluid on your finger you're ok, if not then it is low, I guess that's why I had 2 trannies go on me.

Go to the auto parts store and buy a gear oil pump. It is made of plastic, and screws right onto the bottle of fluid. Then you push down on it and it pumps. It costs under $10. That is the only way to do it!
