Tranny fluid change...what do you use for a connector to drain? 850 97

posted by  someone claiming to be steve on  Fri Mar 30 13:19 CST 2001 [RELATED]

According to Volvospeed/Bay 13 transmission fluid change directions, it say to disconnect the hose on the valve body and connect a plastic plug and transparent hose to drain the fluids. What kind of plug? Is it threaded and what size threads? Is it like a sprinkler connector with a barbed end for the tube? For anyone who did this at home, what did you use?

    Steve, the hose you disconnect has a mildly tapered pipe-like end about 1/2" OD. That is where you slip on the plastic hose. The Plug is to keep dirt out of the hose connection on the tranny and is not critical as there is no pressure there.
