I recently changed the transmission oil in my Honda Civic (Sedan)
1500 cc engine (1984). Draining the oil was no problem, but it took
for ever to fill it back. They have provided a hole on the side
as against on the top to fill oil. I attatched a plastic tube to a
funnel, pushed the open end of the tube in the filling hole, and
poured the oil in the funnel. It would take a long time for the oil
in the funnel to go down in the tranny as if something was blocking
it at the other end. It took me about 10 minutes to get the approx
three quarts the transmission needs in it.

I would appreciate suggestions for doing it better the next time
around.

Also, I am planning to switch to Mobil-1 for the engine. The engine
has about 21,000 miles on it. Is it too late to switch (I have read
some people say that the right time to switch is immediately after
break in period i.e. about 6000 to 8000 miles. Do I have too much
deposits in my engine already to cause any problems?

Thanks in advance.
