My son just bought a 98 Z-28, 6-speed. It's the first time for this tranny for either of us. He's changing the fluid right now, but having a hard time trying to get fluid back into it! There's not enough room to tip a regular bottle up high enough, and some of the other things we've tried just arn't working. Any suggestions?!

 

Forget the filling through the fill hole. Take the shifter out (4 bolts) and pour it in there.

 

Thanks. We found a small hand pump at Advance Auto that screws into a quart bottle. I'll keep the shifter in mind for next time.

 

I attached a rubber hose to the end of a funnel and ran that down the shift boot into the fill hole and filled it from the inside of the car. Let gravity do the work
