So, I emptied the tranny fluid on my Shuttle, but I'm having a helluva a time filling it back up. Seems like it doesn't want to go through the elbow or something. Anyone have any tips?

There should be three plugs on the side of the transmission the bottom is the drain middle is the level plug and the one behind the pulley at the top is the fill. I have always fill at the top with middle removed and when the oil ran out the that plug the trans was full. I have use the one quart bottle and squeezed the oil in the side behind the pulley.

Thanks Doug, that did it.
