Title: stripped out trans fluid check bolt.
Post by: hightempsilicone on January 09, 2006, 11:14:41 AM

Hey guys,
I just picked up a sami. I have already changed all of the fluids except the transmission. I discovered last night that one of the previous owners stripped out the fluid check bolt. Is there another way to add fluid to this transmission other than that bolt?

I have already taken off the shifter boot on top and cant locate anything that stands out to add fluid.

Thanks
Jim

Take out the shifter and pour it straight in the hole.

Just make sure you know how much it's supposed to hold. Filling it until it drips out of the shifter hole is probably a tad too much...   ;D

If ya know anybody thats a welder, they can weld a bolt into the plug bolthole to get it out.
Had a freind that had to do that.
