Great solution to the transmission oil fill conundrum
« on: September 04, 2025, 11:18:12 AM »
As mentioned elsewhere, I recently needed help doing a transmission oil job. 
It's a PITA trying to get the oil in around the muffler, but there is a simple fix that bypasses the need for an oil pump or convoluted funnel.  It's available at Super Cheap Auto and costs just a few dollars per service.



No need to use gravity to fill- just put the tube in and squeeze.  Eezy-peezy!
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
