M/T fluid change

Post by NWMO »

Good Evening all,

The Amsoil manual transmission gear oil arrived late last week, so I changed the fluid today. Here on some pics and only two comments of advice: 1)removal of the speedo cable allows better access for the fill plug and 2)after draining from the rear plug, I pulled the front plug and there was probably still a cup or more of fluid in the front.

Only took a 10 mile test drive, seems fine (no perceptable) difference. The oil that came out didn't look bad, but was certainly a more typical gear oil color and smell. I'll update in a week or two.
