I noticed in my bentley that they say to fill trans at speedo gear location. But it also says they moved the check plug before my trans was built. on an aaz trans do I still fill it at the speedo location? thanks

You likely have an 020 transmission (cable clutch, right ?)... if so.. here's the definitive work on the subject with some great pictures:

You can use the speedo hole or the check hole. It all winds up in the same place.

I use the speedo hole. A small funnel, 2 quarts of lube, in and done.
