Urgent- need help now ATF Fluid top up - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

As this is my first Truck I have no idea where to top up the automatic transmission fluid as it needs some. It is a TH350, is there a seperate filler or do I have to winkle it down the dipstick hole?

Help, dumb question I know, I've looked in the owners manual, Haynes and they tell you to top it up but not where the filler plug is damn them all!!!

It goes down the dipstick tube. Get a funnel or you will have a big mess.
