Hey i was just wondering how i can get the filler bolt off my Eb II gli, manual...Its round so i cant use a spanner or anything i need help...thank you

I am guessing you mean sump bolt - if you can get a pair of mutli grips on it, file the side down to make em flat better grip that way, or very carefully hacksaw a slit into ti, and use a big flat screw driver to undo

Maybe we have a misunderstanding, im trying to get to the gearbox filler bolt, which isnt a bolt its a round thing and ive tried all grips and shit in the bloody world, why the hell does ford gotta make everything so hard, i even got the manual but that doesnt say how to get it off, and its starting to piss me off......thanks for the help if anyone can solve the problem

I thought all T5 manuals used plugs with allen key slots, you need either inhex sockets or Allen keys.

Yup all T5s have internal hex bolts. I'm not sure about the Autos though.

You will need an Imperial set of hex keys, i think its a 3/8s hex.

if it is a hex key and youve stripped it then you got a BIG problem....try a cold chisel. usually works but youll just have to replace the bolt

The problem with using a chisel, is there isnt much room up in there, where the plug is.
Every time i change my gearbox fluid i have to remove my cat.
