OK. Here we go. My first weekend with the new Spitfire. I'm going to start
small. I want to change my oil and transmission fluid. I've done a lot of
oil changes, so that shouldn't be a problem. But I'm trying to figure out
the best way to access the transmission filler/level plug. Should I be able
to access this from the top, or does this need some definite jacking up? If
jacking is required, do I have to jack it up level (jack stands?) to make
sure the filler/level plug is at the right position for an accurate fill?

I really hope I don't annoy the group by asking such basic questions. I'm a
very technical person, I just don't have much automotive mechanics
experience. It is really part of the reason I bought this car, is to better
understand this stuff. I'm kicking myself for taking woodworking classes in
high school instead of automotive. Who knew...

Thanks in advanced
