Changing MTF on EG sedan

Alright, went over to parkway and bought myself some MTF and want to change it on my EG sedan. I've changed my ATF in my EK and that was a piece of cake. I found the drain plug on the EG, its the same as the EK but where the hell does the fluid go into???? I know for my EK, i got a dipstick at the top and I just pour it in, but I dont see one for the EG.

Any help from the EG guys/gals would be nice...


thanks

Right above the drain plug/hole there is another plug.

you need to put a funnel to that, or if you have a fluid gun with flex tube you can use that.

But the easiest thing to do if you're doing it yourself, is to disconnect the VSS and put a funnel in the VSS hole.

VSS = Vehicle Speed Sensor

220k, yah id change it forsure... its worth getting the proper funnles with hose or pump... I tryed jerry rigging with a peice of fuel line and the oil bottle...lol it worked but it took 20 mins standing there to fill it...20 mins just standing there back bent over, staring into your engine compartment felt like 20 hours trust me...lol
