I've got this thing up on jackstands in the garage, but I'm having a tough time finding these plugs. I've got this diagram http://www.genuinesaab.com/psi/files/93-95man-oil.htm but I couldn't find a picture of this thing anywhere :( I really think I've found the drain plug with the 8mm hex nut (flat like plug bolt) but the fill plug is either missing or really hard to find.
I'm thinking I'm staring at it and it's actually missing. When I try to trace up the line from the diagram I see a flat part kind of sticking out off that tranny cover. I can see threads in there too and some dirty looking oil because there is no bolt in there! Could it be missing? At any rate I can't readily see or find the check plugs.
It wouldn't surprise me if the fill plug was missing as this car has a sordid past. However, if it is missing then it's been missing for many years. Wouldn't that cause most of the oil to leak out? I have had a very small kind of all over leak that I thought was an oil pan gasket. I'm wondering now if it's the missing tranny plug.
Anyway, thanks so much for any detailed help or pictures so I can be sure on this and move forward. I really gotta do something with this as I got it in the garage and the wife need to get to work tomorrow. Much appreciated. TIA.
