LUBRICATION—STANDARD TRANSMISSION
The transmission is fitted with one drain plug located at the bottom of the case and one
filler plug on the right side.
Remove the filler plug every 1,000 miles and check fluid level. Permit car to stand idle a
few minutes before checking the level. This will allow the foam to subside and assure a
check of the actual oil level.
At intervals of 5,000 miles the oil should be drained and the transmission refilled with
new lubricant. In summer use 2 pounds of S.A.E. 90 E.P. gear oil and in winter use an
S.A.E. 80 E.P. grade. If the unit is flushed out, it should be refilled with 21/4 pounds of the
proper lubricant.
Should hard shifting be encountered in extremely cold weather, drain out 2 ounces of
transmission oil, add 2 ounces of kerosene and refill to proper level with oil.
LUBRICATION—TRANSMISSION WITH OVERDRIVE
As the same grades of gear oil recommended for the transmission are used in the Over-
drive, communicating passages are provided between the two units. Separate drain and
filler plugs are also provided in the Overdrive housing. The drain plug is located on the
bottom and the filler plug is on the right side of the housing.
