Hello everyone, I have just bought a 1992 Ranger 3.0 with the m5od transmission. I drove it to work and back yesterday and noticed the transmission whine got worse. I got up under it at home and saw that it was covered in fluid. I traced it to the rubber plugs (by the help of this forum!) and I pulled them and covered in RTV to seal it off.
My next course of action is to drain and fill the transmission. However, I cannot for the life of me get the fill plug out. Can I fill from the shifter? If so, how can I tell if I get enough fluid in and don't over fill it? I've read that there is a bolt to check the fluid level next to the fill plug but I am unable to find much more information about it.
Thanks!
