sholdowa Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Whatever you do, ignore those who post recommending you use atf. It makes for an easier change when cold ( hey, where are we??? ), but it's too thin to do it's job properly. Or was this just a problem back in the UK, and you already know better??

RT Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 just fill it up and then open the bung on the side when the box is level and let it seep out. The correct amount is level with that bung. BTW, don't ever put any additives such as gearup or anything into a type9 it fucks em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
