Can't find the spout to pour transmission fluid into Ford Taurus

I am trying to find the port / spout that I can pour transmission fluid into the engine. I see the openings for motor oil, windshield wiper fluid, coolant and break fluid.

You need a funnel to add trans fluid to the dipstick tube where u check the trans fluid level. Let me know if u need more help, Add fluid w/ engine running, shift car thru all gears to circulate fluid. Don't overfill, it's bad for the trans.

Looks like it may have too much fluid inside. But, it also has to have a loose fill bolt, if manual transmission, or dip stick if automatic, or the drain bolt is loose.

Have someone check to see which problem it is, and check the proper oil level and tighten the plugs.

Transmission stalls after it gets hot
This usually happens when the transmission fluid gets hot.

Transmission fluid gets hot when there's not much of it.

Check your transmission fluid levels.

If it's low, you can fill it by pouring fluid down the testing hose. Just make sure to get a funnel.

1996 Ford Taurus transmission "dumps " fuild
There are no guarantees when it comes to a rebuilt transmission or anything. They usually have a warranty for the work all depending on the mileage afterwards. Is it over it? Most likely the gaskets need replacing and the bolts tightened again.
