To change the Transmission Fluid is not particularly difficult.

1. Raise the vehicle as needed and support on stands.

2. Place a suitable drain pan under the transaxle and remove the pan bolts. As you remove the bolts the pan will loosen allowing the fluid to drain out into the drain pan. Be careful to avoid a spill outside the drain pan.

3. While the pan is off is an excellent time to change the transmission filter.

4. Re install the pan. lower the car and refill the transaxle with fresh fluid to the proper level.

Alternate way;

Remove the pressure hose to the radiator cooler. Start the engine and let the pump drain the fluid into a suitable container. As soon as the flow stops turn the engine off. Reconnect the line and fill the transaxle to the proper level with new fluid.

My 1990 Chevy celebrity does not have a drain plug on the transmission pan. Your car probably does not have one either. You could break loose a transmission line from the radiator and add fluid in the dipstick tube while the car is running until the color of the transmission fluid clears up.
