Are you changing out the gear oil, or just topping it off? The simplest way I've found to get it in there is using the 1 quart bottle of gear oil with the pointy cap. Put the little funnel in the fill hole angled down, and squeeze. Tilt it back up, let the bottle return to shape, repeat until topped off. I bought a gallon of gear oil and filled the quart bottle up again to finish the job, and kept the small bottle for when I need it again. Way faster than a funnel/hose. Cya, Robert |
