Yup it holds 2.6, so get 3 quarts just incase if you are useing the vacuum pump thing, when I did my it leak alot of it out.
Aother easy way to fill the tranny is thorugh the console/gear shifter from inside the car.
Just pull the console off and run a hose through it to the filler hole, and start to fill it till the oil comes out of the hole.
It was much easier and faster then useing a pump!

You won't spill the oil if you got a long enough house,(you could do it outside of the car) one end of it to the filler hole, the other end with a funnel. and if you got a friend that could pour the oil and with you under the car watching when it's full and start to come out of the hole.
If you are doing it by yourself you should know when you've poured 2.6 quarts of it in(thats all it holds). Then carefully pull the house away and go under the car tighten the filler plug!
