Dumb Question #564: Where does the trans fluid go?

illuminance · Post by **illuminance** » Wed May 30, 2007 9:55 pm

The manual says the transmission has a .09 liter/.095 quart capacity. Where do I put this in, or change or drain it? I should know this, but can't find any drain plug or a place to add it. Thanks for helping the stupids like me.

Some have a drain plug too. My NH80 has it and it is a lot easier than tipping it sideways.

yea just remember to take out the battery before you tip it if it isn't a sealed battery... don't want acid leaking everywhere...

It will still leak out from the breather tube, unsealed batteries have a tendency to leak no matter what if they are turned on their sides or upside-down.
