Hey yall! I have a 1989 312-8. The trans axle fluid is milky. Does anyone know where the drain plug is to drain and put new in? Thanks Rick

And someone will be along shortly to let you know to jack up the front so the transmission will drain over the hump in the bottom.

Your transaxle has a dipstick, slow filling through that is one option.

Some guys lube the gearshift lever, slide the boot up, loosen the dog screw, remove the shifter (it was in Neutral, right?) and fill there. If the boot is in bad shape, it the perfect opportunity to replace it!

WHX??

The drain  might be plugged with gunk so clean it all off good before trying to take it out. Make sure the allen gets a good bite so you don't strip it out. It might come out hard.
