You can get workshop manuals on eBay on disk.
Price anywhere from $10 to $20.

On the earlier X Series falcons there was
A drain bolt on the torque convertor so you could
Do a full drain and refill.

It's not a good idea to partially change the fluid
As the old fluid will contaminate the new
Fluid.
So you want to get as much of the old fluid
Out you can.

The rear spark plug is easiest removed using
A kingchrome T bar plug spanner.
They have a pivot joint and as well are torque
Set so you can't over tighten the plugs.
Cost around $70 but well worth it.

Great to hear a Female being very responsible
With her car as well giving it a go herself.
Keep it up.
