I think somebody said you could fill from the opening when you take the 
shifter lever out. 
I will ask the same question as I am preparing to refill the Midget 
tranny today. 
I heard from more knowledgable listers that it is a Marina tranny and 
does require the 90wt lube. Can I fill through the shifter? I do not 
think so from what I remember of the layout when I last had a Midget 1500 
tranny out and apart. Once, about 1979 or so. I beleive the shift rail is 
seperate from the actual tranny does not connect. 
If I'm right anybody have a good way to get the 90wt into the tranny? 
There is no access panel oon the side of the tunnel. MIght try a rubber 
tube through the opening where the shifter is??

In a world without walls or fences, what use do we have for windows or
