Default 96 manual tranny fluid change

Got the tranny fluid changed last night. Really easy job (once I got the star tork safty allen socket.
The fill took a while. Modified a funnel with some longer tubing.
Seems to be much smoother shifting now.

for 7$ you could have gotten a tool (insert forgotten name here) that will do the job even easier

FYI, also works on newer Porsche gearboxes as well. With a 1/2in drive, there is no way you'll ever have a stuck plug with that tool.
