I just got an old 1992 manual gear Mazda Protege dx 4 door. When I put it in gear after a few seconds the engine is revving but it doesn't seem to be engaging like it should. It's like I'm giving it the gas and can hear it, but it isn't accelarating like it should. Could this be the Transmission Fluid? How do I check it...I can't see a dipstick in the motor?
In Answer to that question, you don't see a dipstick because it's a manual transmission, what your experiencing here is a burnt clutch not a lack of fluid, becaus your engine is Reving, and your getting no output.... sounds like you should just get another transmission with a good clutch in a used scrapyard, lesss expensive then the labor for a brand new clutch!!
Just a thought

There is no stick on a manual transmission, you check the fluid with the fill plug

there is no dip stick for a manual transmission .there is a bolt on the side of the trans you have to pull then stick your finger in ..if you can touch it its ok
AnswerRight under the back intake manifold
DOT-4 is recommended
Mazda dx what? Protege, 626, B-truck?? Protege capacity would be 2.83 quarts or 2.68 liters. Mazda 626 manual trans would take 2.9 quarts or 2.7 liters.
where is the transmission shift solenoid located on a 2001 Mazda protege
Should be a plug at the side of transmission - fill to oil starts coming out of this plug
is under the transmission stick console, heres a web page for mre info. http://www.scribd.com/doc/51604740/Mazda-Protege-Workshop-Manual-1994-1998R-English
