Re:E30 manual trans fluid change tool? and diff fluid

I built a long hose with a funnel at the top.  One end in the transmission
filler hole and the other end start pouring the fluid in th funnel.  I pour
90% of the fill capacity in the manual and then pour alittle while checking
the filler hole for overflow.  I bought my 17mm at Sears for $18.  You alos
need a steel pipe to get enough leverage to remove the plug especially if
its the first time you have tried it.  The rear diff plugs are the same
size.

Cheers
John
