Sorry Phil,
I just opened one drain plug on the transmission, and
let the oil run out. Then I filled it up with MOBIL 1
75W-90 synthetic gear oil, using the pump tool.
It has been about eight or nine months, my transmission
hasn't died yet. Does that mean there is oil in the
cavity you talked about ? Should I start to WORRY ?
I described the tool as a syringe, that was a mistake
from poor memory. I do have a syringe tool, but have
used it to lubricate other things ( clothes dryer motors,
furnace motors .. Audi heater blower motors..).
The tool for the transmission is very much like
the pump on liquid soap dispensers, but a large version.
