CHECK OIL LEVEL
Fluid type and capacities are listed in the Lubrication
chapter.
1: Raise the drive wheels off of the ground and
place a drain pan that can hold a minimum of
2-quarts of oil under the transmission level plug.
2: Remove the level plug and lower the drive axle to
the ground over the drain pan.
3: A small amount of oil may come out. This
indicates that the transmission has the correct
amount of oil.
4: If no oil comes out, then it may need to have oil
added; add oil through the open level plug until it
is overflowing out of the hole.
5: Reconnect the main positive and negative cables
at the batteries, remove blocks from behind the
wheels and test drive the vehicle.
This section is one section of a complete service
manual. Before starting any procedure, read all
