    After 5 years. Still the best video i can find.
    Good explanation. Decent filming work. And the tubing part is also genius.
    As my dad always says. "If its stupid but it works, it aint stupid."
    Thanks for the video.
    And sorry for my grammar.
    Have a nice day all.

    I checked a lot of videos about the same thing and yours was the most accurate and informative about tools and clearly showed how to do it
    Thanks 👍🏼

    Thanks, man. I have the same car and it has (I believe) a bad input shaft bearing. Since I don't feel like shelling out $1100+ to have the transmission rebuilt or replaced, my mechanic says flushing the transmission fluid should give me a few months. This vid should save me $50. Thanks.

      Typical Honda fails. Pretty sure mines on the way out too. Decided to change trans fluid to give longer life lol

      Hold up how the fuck is it not safe was there ramps in the front ? Yes was he laying in the rear ? No could the car accidentally fall on him ? No way possible 🤦🤦

      @@rickyjohnson974 100% true. Hes being completely safe. Even if the rear fell at the most he'd take an exhaust to the face.

      Jack stands are more sketchy as they can snap off or come off . I always use a 4 ton jack to support the car along with a wood block and jack stands. There’s always a recall on jack stands, not so much on the jacks and never had a problem , been working with my dad for 22 years now and no issue.

    • @SailorStupider
      @SailorStupider 8 років тому +2

      It's faster yes but you risk overfilling the transmission not to mention the sensor is actually pretty delicate. I won't tell anyone to not but if your electrical connector or the sensor is brittle or you don't know how much fluid it needs exactly then I wouldn't recommend that route

    • @jesusunpingco7900

    I put a copper fitting just like yours but my dumbass didnt put a hose clamp, long story short copper fitting went inside fill hole i still could fill it but as i was trying to get it out from the fill hole it went more down, know will i need to take the whole transmission out to get this thing out do you know?? An answer will really be apreciated. Thank you

    • @BenjaminSahlstrom
      @BenjaminSahlstrom  10 років тому

      You can get it on Amazon. Just search "Honda MTF" and it should be the top result. It onle should take two quarts. I actually got mine from a Honda dealer because it was easier in my case. Good luck and Merry Christmas!

    you could always just drop the holes all the way in since it's plastic and it will curve

    • @BenjaminSahlstrom
      @BenjaminSahlstrom  8 років тому

      Good point! It made it just a tad easier with the 90 but you could definitely get by without it.
