What kind of cap? Can it be removed or is there no hole in the casting?

Maybe you can remove the cap or maybe there is no drive gear inside the transmission. Try looking up some parts diagrams on this site

Default 2MZ transmission speed unit

Hey guys so I got the 2MZ transmission going by removing the cap and replacing it with a speedometer unit from the 1MZ transmission and it works fine thanks for the help 👍🏽
