Has anyone ever tried to fill up a manual trans from the shifter mount inside the car? Seems like it would be easier than pumping it in through the side fill ...
You'll have to know how much fluid to put back in. Every manual gerarbox I'f filled had you fill it until fluid came out of the fill hole. Obviously if you...
it's really not that hard to fill it from below. use a 3/8" square drive to remove the fill plug. you can buy a hand pump from the local auto parts store....
When I refill, I remove the top fill hole, leave a catch pan under the car, and then fill from the shifter area until it comes out the fill hole. Much easier...
... I've done this multiple times. Worked fine all of the time. If you need to, you could pull the plug and stop pouring when it comes out. I've never done...
that'd work. don't drop anything in there! ... From: Tim Clark <oktavius8292@...> To: rrax-mustang@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2008 4:20:55...
That works fine and since you have boot off, you can actually see when it starts running out instead of wasting several ounces listening for it to splash. ...
You guys are going about it the hard way!:) I use a funnel and a long piece of clear hose from ace. Hang the funnel under the open hood using a coat hanger,...

Well larry, i've r'n'r'd my tranny 4 times...3 engine changes and a clutch, since 2002. And not a single time did I remove the shifter. The handle, yes. The...
still too hard. I plug in a small aftermarket 12 volt fuel pump, one end in the bottle, one end in the trans, and turn it on. Both hands are now free for the...
YES! YES! mmm doughnut... (drool) LOL well my shifter is off, so I'm trying it that way! ha As much fun as Pete's snaking tube with a coat hanger sounds.......
Steve-o, don't know how far your new house is from mine, but if all else fails, you can borrow my tube and funnel. I keep it hung up on the left wall of the...
No, I can't :-( I'll be in Singapore probably the first week or two of May, and then Lone Pine Time Trials at the end of May. I don't really have the time,...
Ive filled my tranny that way every time, no problem. If you are concerned about over filling....open up the fill hole after you put in the fluid to allow any...

According to the 2008 rules, 15.11 states: 15.11 OUT-OF-PRODUCTION CARS Where a car is out of production and the manufacturer is either out of business, stocks...
Probably the best way to solve this is to gateher all the information you can and send it to SCCA and let them make a determination and get it in writing....
Hi guys, I've been driving my '72 Mustang around after doing suspension and trans, wheels/tires, etc to it, and having a problem with front end grip. I've...
Steve-o, You have staggered tire widths on a nose heavy car. Even the m3 pushes with that setup, and it's not nose heavy. Fast m3 drivers usually run...
What class are you trying to be eligible for, stock? If so, there's no updating or backdating, so I think you're out of luck. H's & K's, Rick Ruth ... out of ...
Rick, Section 15, so SP. I didn't really know that from the section number though, I only knew becuase he asked elsewhere in a thread called ESP Fox. :) :) ...

Yeah, I know, I know . . . . The diff sizes are mostly for looks and fun, keeping that "muscle car" look. The car is most certainly a street car, I just tend...
In an addition I remembered that the camber is set at -0.3 or close to that, not too aggressive. I would guess that something like -0.5 --> -1.0 would be...
On Fri, Apr 4, 2008 at 4:04 PM, johnysbillards ... The truth is, modern radial tires aren't all that sensitive to camber. I'd throw as much camber as I could...
Yeah, steve-o. Camber it up! Unless you can do tall spindles or the "shelby mod", which I would love, because I like fixes like that. don't know if it...
Did you happen to do anything to "tighten" or otherwise improve the limited slip? Did you do anything that might cause front suspension binding? Maybe the Poly...
