D series Transnission Flush How ?

[Thurobred]

Does anyone feel like explaining to me how much of a hassle it is to drain the tranny oil in a five speed? I heard it's quite tedious. Is there an easy way to do it in the garage with a couple of jack stands? How much Honda MTF do i put in the tranny? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks a lot.

you can use 10w 30 (synthetic recomended) but its really not that hard. the crank case capacity is 1 7/8 quarts. All you need to do is on the crankcase there is a drain plug and you just use the square from your ratchet and loosen it up, let it all drain out, put drain plug back in, then its time to fill it up, there is a sensor on the top of the crankcase that is fairly accesable, you just unscrew the sensor fill through that and put it back on and your done

Can the front end be raised up with jack stands or do you need to have the car level to have it all drain out; either with a lift or 4 jack stands?
