722.9 drain plug

Anyone happen to know the thread size of the drain plug? I need to fill the trans on this friday if I can get the car inside the shop. I had all the time in the world to order the fill adapter, but completely forgot it. So, instead I'm going to make one, as it looks to be quite simple tool.

Didn't need to really build anything. This airline fitting had a correct thread:



Then I added piece of 8 mm nylon tubing, and some electrical tape to make it fit nicely to a 10 mm ID hose:



Then I just pushed that tool into the hose of this another tool we have at work, and tightened the hose clamp:



Really nice and quick to fill the oil.
