    Default vdrive oil question

    I can say also that I'm pretty sure the specs in the manual are wrong when it comes to the quantity. I think the book calls for 0.5 qts, when mine actually took a full quart. Just be sure you check it.

    Unscrew the vent cap and use that hole. Much larger than the dip stick hole. Specs call for 1 qt of 30 WT but that is when completely empty so a little less than that on a normal oil change.

    That's been my experience as well.

    Default vdrive oil question

    I think mine is starting to leak somewhere. It seems to be lower on the Walter dip stick after each trip. Any suggestions? I asked my mechanic he said possibly a loose/cracked hose.

    Where is the vent cap? I've always used the dip stick hole to fill.
