Oil filling

Checked again and JCL is right. It says: "Also suitable for.....etc". I would not use it in mine.

Here is an easier way to fill your transmission and differentials than pumping it in. I bought this contraption at Advantage but Pepboys also has them. It comes with a foot of hose but HD sells the same size hose in a 10 feet length which I added to mine. They also come with an funnel but I decided to go with this one and attach a water bottle. If you take the white adapter off it fits an oil bottle.

I cut the bottom from the bottle and hung it upside down from the garage door rail. The cap at the bottom makes the spilling less when you take it out and it has a valve at the bottle side as well.

String the hose through the passenger door handle and over the top of the exhaust and use a tie-wrap to attach it to one of the big nuts that holds the heat shields up. Then dumped the fluid in a liter at a time.
