Tranny fluid.........just pull out the dip stick and see how much is in it........if it's low.......add some more. At least that's how mine works.

tranny fluid...what did i tell you
timing...not hard just get a gun from sears and return it when your done. call me tomorrow morning if u got trouble with the timing
vtec solenoid...like 3 10mm i think. replace gasket, tighten to spec. if it still leaks, looks like youll need a new vtec solenoid
VSS...try that one off of an LS that i left at your place and make sure all 3 of your wires are still plugged into your clip before u do anything
cel22...your on your own on that one

i used the one off my old ls tranny, it was working when the tranny crapped out. as for the vtec solonoid im not sure if its the gasket or what.
i could very easily do all this. but im sick of this shit and just want to drive it. i dont want to work on it anymore. more than glad to work on someone elses car, as for mine. FUCK THAT

There is no dipstick for a manual tranny. If the car is level and the fluid is overflowing or level, then it's full.

For timing just warm up your car, short circuit the jumper cable, and place the cable on the number 1 spark plug wire. To advance or retard, move the distributor.

For a cable vss, you need to make sure the vss and the cable is secured, check the c clip at the tranny to make sure it's not loose. Don't use the electronic vss on a cable setup.

Code 22 is the oil pressure switch, I believe. Just check your wiring and make sure everything is connected securely.

If you're having problems working on your own car, I think I would be scared of you working on other people's car. j/k.

For code 22 check that the black wire off the pressure switch is going to a good ground, I usually use the t-stat ground. The blue wire should be the one run to the ecu (b5 I think) make sure you didn't ground the wrong wire. Tranny oil takes about two quarts. Just make sure the car is decently level and remove the fill plug. If oil is draining out then let it till it stops, if no oil comes out add it till it does, very simple.
