Hi everyone,
A friend of mine received as a gift a 1989 civic sedan DX. Its got a B15B2 motor with auto trannie.
its a sweet ride with only 123000 kms on it, new rad, newer driveshafts, very clean on top. New exhaust, almost no rust, which is surprising since it was in the salt belt here in Winnipeg.
However when I got underneath to remove the oil filter, I noticed a leak. Not entirely sure where it is coming from. Also couldn't tell if it was oil or trannie fluid.
I figure that the best way to determine what it is would be to check if the trannie fluid is low. The engine oil level was fine.
What is the procedure for checking trannie fluid? My previous reading indicates you have to check while the car is running in neutral. Is this correct?
