Question on refilling gear oil on type 016 manual gearbox

[Livolsi, Stephane]

Hi Adam, I got a 3 inch bolt with a 17mm head and welded 2 -17mm nuts on the
other end.  (the guy that welded this for me did look at me like I had 2
heads but anyway...)  Stick the bolt head in the tranny, and a 17mm socket
on the nut end and you're off to the races.

HTH
