ATF Cap/Adding....Where? Dumb '96 JGC Question
'96 JGC....just wanted to check ATF levels (I see that dip
stick)....but where the heck is the cap to pour it in?
Seemed I was able to see the brake,engine,powersteering,coolant, and
all sorts of other things. However could not spot the ATF
cap/resevoir....
Where in the heck do you place ATF fluid in this darn thing?
This is embarrassing to ask...heck, I'm a guy for crissakes! (at least
the last time i check :) ). Help me save my manhood! Direct me to
the place to place the AFT (if needed)...
TIA!

That's it.

You did. It's the tube where the dipstick goes.

In the tube where the trans dipstick goes.

AFT goes in the back but usually on boats. ATF goes in the dipsitck
tube where you check the level.
And yes, I am a smartass. ^_^
Just remember to check it with the tranny warm. Too much ATF fluid
is just as bad (if not worse) than too little.
Drive for about 15 miles to get the tranny up to operating temp.
Put the Jeep on level ground
Shift through all positions P/R/N/D/L1/L2 etc
Put it back in park
Set the emergency brake
leave the engine running
check the level
Add only enough to bring it up to the full mark.
