LUBRICATION
7. Drain old oil filters of all free flowing oil prior to
disposal. Place used oil in appropriate containers
and dispose of it in accordance with laws in your
area.
8. Remove the top port plug (see illustration) from the
left side and right side of the transaxles prior to
filling with oil. This will allow the transaxles to vent
during oil fill.
9. Remove the cap from the transaxles’ expansion
tank located on the vehicle frame.
10. Fill with 20W50 motor oil until oil just appears at the
bottom of each transaxles’ top port (approximately
2 quarts per transaxle, 4 quarts total). Install the top
port lug into each transaxle as the oil level reaches
this port.
11. Install and torque the top port plugs to 180 in./lbs.
12. Continue to fill the transaxles through the
expansion tank until the “Full Cold” line is reached
(this will take approximately 23 additional ounces).
13. Re-install the expansion tank cap by hand. Be
careful to not overtighten.
14. Proceed to the purge procedure.
