                Trying to find the motivation to climb under the car and do the driveshaft and trans/diff fluid.  I have a feeling that the guibo thing might have taken a crap.

                  To fill trans fluid take out the shift boot and use a funnel with a hose from inside the car, no need to pump it in.

                    Good idea!  That never crossed my mind.  That was one of the things I was dreading.

                      Worked great for me, but pour it into the funnel slowly, I had a brain fart and forgot my trans only holds 1.2 qts, for some reason I was thinking 1.8, so I dumped a half quart of redline on the ground.

                          That's some awesome MacGyver-ing, looks like when I got my fan clutch off without the special tools and the big-wrench/swing a BFH method failed

                                    The wheel looks too modern for the car. Also, how do you fill up the trans from there? I'm just curious, as I haven't owned a manual prior to the winter E28

                                      2ft of clear hose and that funnel. Pop the hose into the side fill hole and start pouring! So much easier than the pump method.
