Reverse switch, tranny oil

Trying to change manual tranny oil but can't get 17mm filler bolt off. Some people been talkin about filling through the Reverse Switch (on top of the tranny, pull out wire, and fill). Has anyone done this, or have any tips? I'm not sure I know exactly how to do it and would like some help. Thank you.

........... I think he means put some muscle into it like ya know...with your arms.

And if my scrawny 140 pound ass can break the crank pulley bolt loose you can get that sucker off.

Hail, to the skinny mofos (like me!) Yeah man, put a breaker bar on it and go to town. If my scrawny ass can snap a header stud, then anything is possible...

Re: Reverse switch, tranny oil

to answer your question though, IMO its a whole lot easier to fill it up through there, However, you 're supposed to know the level is right when it starts coming out og the filler hole. But you could look up the right amount in your helms manual and just pour that in.
