There is a fill plug mid way up on the passenger side.  I usually add fluid until it starts running out the fill plug hole.  The 86 ford manual says it holds 5.6 pints.  Note this trans takes ATF and not the normal manual trans 90W gear oil.

Thanks. I couldn't seem to find the plug. I will look at it tomorrow.
