Sorry to bother everyone again.

It's about time I looked at the transmission on my Racing Turtle.
Some nasty, whining noises are coming out of it in a few places.

Does anyone know of a location diagram for the various drain, fill and level-checking plugs in the differential, gearbox and transfer housings?

I know there's the online manual, however every time I try to download it, my computer chucks a major wobbly and refuses to talk to me for ages.

Thanks again,

Lateer,theres three drain plugs and three fill~plugs(two frount on drive~ side,rear one on pass~side) on the main tranny body.Take them all~off to drain.Fill from the rear~plug with the rear drain~plug about 8~turns loose(allows oil clearance too vary back).The Diff is self explanitory.
Main Tranny=4.1-Qts (partial sinth-90-140 is what I used)
Diff=1.1-Qts :)

Well, I upgraded my version of Adobe Acrobat Reader from 4 to 6.0.2. :blink:

Combine that with the Uni's great internet connection, and I got the manual, which is really, really interesting reading. It's going to make my life a *lot* easier. :D

Thanks for the info, Thereminator. :)

Still can't find the blower resistor, though. The manual tells how to test it, but not where it is :huh:
