Checking Fluid Level

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 17 other vehicles, including the 1983 Pontiac Phoenix, 1983 Pontiac Firebird, 1983 Pontiac 6000, 1983 Pontiac 2000 Sunbird, and 1983 Pontiac 2000. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Check lubricant level at filler plug hole on side of transmission. Lubricant should be level with bottom of filler plug hole. Add lubricant as necessary to bring to correct level.

NOTE: If vehicle is equipped with a transaxle, check fluid level when transaxle is cold. If hot, fluid may flow from filler hole when plug is removed. This could result in burned hands or incorrect level readings.
