replacing manual trans fluid-1991 NA

olderiget · 07-27-2009, 04:40 PM

Almost embarrased to ask this question but the transmission drain plug is easy to get to but I cannot figure out the refill plug location? I assume it is the classic side plug that you add until it overflows out?

second question- any recommendations of low cost tires? Stock 91 NA, just a fun toy so performance not the goal here -

I posted a month ago as newbie with first MR2 and so far it has been a blast- the AC leak is the big issue but I have been adding some R12 but it leaks out and I am feeling guilty on the eco thing. Which brings to third question- are any of the off the shelp stop leak products worth trying assumig I can find an R12 compatable? same with the little 2 oz oil charges since I get a little squeal when compressor first comes on?

As always thanks for the help and for not making newbies feel like idiot

it isn't very hard to convert our cars to R134a

I'd see if I couldn't find a good AC Tech in my area to talk to on the R12 stop-leak stuff
