Thanks for the help. But I'm a bit confused on the tranny part:
1. My car is a 95 2.8l 12V V6, not a V8. Are you suggesting the
procedures are the same?
2. If you drop the pan on my tranny, there is no way to know how full
it is - there is no dipstick on 1994 and later cars. Scan tool is
required, but OBD2 began in 1996.
Can you clarify? Thnx.
