Milano tranny fluid ?s

["joel lewis" <loosej89@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

   When i first got my '89 Milano gold back in 1996,  when the temperature 
was cold, that is in the 40s F or less, my Milano would not even go into 2nd 
gear until it was warmed up.  I would just shift from 1st to 3rd gear for 
the first 10 minutes of the day.   After it was warm, it was very difficult 
to downshift into 2nd.  After putting in the redline,  all my 2nd gear 
problems disappeared.  It is much smoother to double the clutch when going 
from 3rd to 2nd though.
 As far as getting the oil into the transaxel, go to any auto parts store 
and buy a gearbox oil pump.  they cost about $4.00.   Lift the car so that 
it is level, remove the filler plug then just plug the pump into the tranny 
and start pumping.  it will start flowing out when it is full.
