Re: [DML] manual transmission oil change

["stainlessilusion" <5n-@xxxxxxx>]

Figured I'd mention my method of filling so you will have a choice. The gear oil bottles usually have pointed caps where you can cut off a big or small hole depending on what you need. I just cut a small hole, put a hose [that will fit in the filler hole] on the cap and run it into the filler hole and squeeze the oil into the transmission until the fluid is level with the hole. Putting the rear of the car on a ramp will change the amount of oil you'll need, so watch out. -----Dani B #5003 in FL!
