Filling the Transfer Case...questions

Hello all, you been great help in dealing with my TC and I just have one more question for ya.

On the back of my TC #242 I noticed two possible screws, one above the other to fill and drain the TC.

Question: Is the bottom one to drain and is the top one to fill? This seems the ONLY logical choice to me, but I'm just making sure.

Also, isn't there a special tool I have to get in order to get the ATF+3 pumped in there and fill it up with the 1.5 quarts?

Is there any additives I should/could add to the TC while doing this job?

Thanks all, you've really been a big help to me on here.

You've got the plug thing figured out, no problems..
No special tool required, though you could go get a fancy pump to do it, I just stick the nozzle of the bottle in the hole and squeeze the gitty-goo out of it. Then when I get the second bottle squeezed down, I pour what's left in the first bottle into the second bottle, and go at it again.

The top of gear oil bottles are handy for that. Just screw it on the atf+3 bottle and shoot and sqeeze.
