How do I drain my tranny?

[sprayedlude93]

I have the engine out so I would like to this now. I found the drain plug but it didnt look like much came out. where do i fill it up at. I heard the speen sensor so i took off the 2 10mm screws and it didnt look right. then there were 2 hoses out the back and well the thick ass Lucas Tranny stuff I was using wasnt going in there so I guess that wasnt it. I thought about turning it over and pouring it in the drain plug. ugh help. Honda wants 160 for it and well I Wanna use the 2 10w30 Royal Purple's that I have with The one Lucas. So help please. Pictures would work better,

automatic or 5 speed? if its a 5 speed then the fill hole is up and left as you face the drain plug.. if its an auto the you refill it thru the dip stick tube.....

The drain plug was #11 right ? so the fill should be #12??????

***Also if I dont have a cap on my Tranny breather tube is that bad? My h23 doesnt appear to have one either.?????

the drain plug is not #11, and the fill is not #12

the drain plug is #10, the fill is #14 - according to the diagram you posted from honda tech.

11, and 12 are sealing bolts or something.

I don't have a cap on my tranny breather either - so i hope it's not bad (: looks pretty sheltered where it is though and atleast it can breathe without a cap on it ha, but yea i've been wondering that myself.

best of luck.

yes i am a honda mech, the drain is 10 the fill is 14, im assuming you have a 5 speed then, dont use motor oil use honda manual trans fluid it is better for your trans regardless of what people say.
