Alright,
I finally got my car back together and shifting nicely today. It felt really good to give her a bath and take a nice drive. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) I'll never get tired of the look on peoples faces when I accelerate up the on ramp and the back-end walks sideways spinning the tires. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/burnout.gif) Had a CHP bike-cop tail me up an on ramp on my way home and give me a long look once he pulled along side. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) Anyhoo, ... I got to thinking that I've never had a look at the oil in the transaxle. Unfortunatly I have no idea how to check, or drain/fill a 915. It isn't one of these silly procedures where I need to drop it out of the car is it? Any illumination would be greatly appreciated. |

There should be a fill and a drain hole on the passenger side of the tranny, just unscrew the filler hole(higher than the drain hole) and stick your finger in and check for fluids.

Right.
Thanks, I guess I'll go back on the jack stands this week and have a look. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) |
