what to use to put ATF in?

I used a funnel with a long tube, but alot of it fell out and dripped on the ground. What have people used that works well? Thanks.

Turkey baster? However you spell it..you know the little suction things I'm referring to right? That works well...I usually, get a vacuum line stuck in the spark plug hole, then with the baster, pour the fluid the the vacc. line into the engine. Why not MMO? I stand by that ****!

I used a transmission fluid pump that they sell at Pep Boys to put in manual tranny fluid and diff fluid, works like a charm and it's really cheap.

use a vacuum hose, put it in the bottle of atf then put your finger on top of the hole on top to hold the fluid in the hose. then.........you know what do . =)

A clear hose works best.

I have a rather small oil squirt can. The downward angle on the thing fits perfectly into both uppper and lower plug holes. No drips, no fuss, no mess. Most auto parts stores have 'em.
