Just wondering if anybody found a neat device that makes it easier to get that swepco in there. I made a mess last time, and ended up adding little by little and it took forever.
Ferg. ps, i did a seach but came up with nothing. |

Hmmm. I just did this, and found it very easy. Remove plug, tilt up bottle, hold with a rag under the hole, until the oil dribbled out the hole. The bottle had a tapered tip that fit in the hole nicely, and most gear oils I've seen are sold in such a bottle. Is Swepco not available in this kind of bottle?
The 914 is one of the easier cars I've done this on, since there's so much empty space near (and esp above) the filler hole. All too many cars have the filler hole surrounded by floor or beams and force you to use a hand pump, which can be somewhat messy when switching bottles. |
