How do i change the differential oil? I cant find the fill plug.

You don't. You have Cv joints connected to the transmission because you have no rear end differential. The only thing you have to check is tire pressure especially the front because they must have even pressure & the transmission fluid. I assume it's automatic. Good luck!

1995 Ford Escort LX Wagon 1.9 Liter. 173K Loud Vibration

Is the engine running on all four cylinders, no missfire? If so, check the engine and transmission mounts, there are four, one at the top right hand side, one at the top of transmission on the left hand side, and one on front of transmission bell housing, and one in the rear transmission bell housing, any of them that are bad can cause this vibration. Hope this helps, let me know.

How do i refill a manual ford escort 9.1 L transmission

You can check and fill your transmission oil level by removing the speedometer drive unit located at the left top. Remove the cable by removing the clip that hold it, then undo the bolt that holds the clamp down, when you remove the actual drive unit it has a level indicator on it. The oil is Ford Mercon Automatic transmission Oil. Let me know if this helps. Also if you need to add oil, you should find the leak and stop it first.
