Both plugs look identical. The drain plug is on the very bottom of the transmission. The fill plug is on side of the transmission (the passenger side about a 3rd of the way towards the back of the trans and about 1/2 the way up).

Both plugs require a 17mm allen wrench (hex). You can also get 17mm hex socket to fit your ratchet. You can get these at sears or the local car parts shop.

ALWAYS remove the "fill" plug first. This is so that if you accidently strip it, you won't be stuck with a transmission that has already been drained of oil.

I have found that it's easiest if you use a pipe or something to add leverage to the hex. This reduces the chance of you stripping the plug. The plugs are usually in pretty tight - resist tapping the wrench with a hammer, there pretty soft metal and strip easily.

You don't have to have a pump to fill the transmission (although that does make it easier). If you buy the oil that has a pointed spout, there is just enough room to tip the bottle sideways and fill the transmission.

You fill the transmission until oil starts to come out of the fill hole (i.e., it's full).

When you do the project, check to see if your drain plug is magnetic. If it's not, you can buy magnetic plugs at Pelican for a few bucks and that will help catch any stray metal shavings. If your plugs are slightly stripped already, I would replace with new ones at this time.
