Where does the transmission fluid go on a 1994 buick?

My 1994 Buick LeSabre will not move when I put on the gas. The engine seems to be fine. It turns on and off easily. I finally got it to move in first gear. My car is an automatic. I think I need to check the transmission fluid but I don't have a clue how to do that. Can anyone help please?|||You have to locate the TRANSMISSION dip stick. Do not confuse it with the engine oil dipstick! Have a friend who is knowledgeable show you.





The engine must be running (in Park) on level ground. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it off. Re-insert the dipstick and pull it out again. Look at the end of the dipstick to see the fluid level. It should be between the two marks (small holes on the dipstick or hash marks). Add 1 pint of fluid at a time until the level is between the two marks. MAKE SURE YOU USE THE CORRECT FLUID TYPE. If not, you'll ruin the transmission, guaranteed.





Transmission fluid is added through the same tube that the dipstick uses. You'll certainly need a funnel.|||your not suppose to think it needs fluid, you have to check it to be sure. it might be low or it could be the transmission filter clogged too. you pull the dip stick out, use a funnel and fill it there but don,t overfill it or you could blow seals.|||There is a dipstick for the transmission. Remove it, and use a funnel to add fluid.
