Hi all, after your good advice have sorted out oil and filter to use for the engine
I am sure this subject has been done to death but I will change the oil in the box/OD
Which oil to use 20/50 or EP90 ?
I noticed a post about the assembly of the brass filter is there a definitive picture
showing correct way, do I need a special tool to get this off?
Any tips gratefully received
kind regards Lee
You should certainly clean the filter from time to time Lee, if nothing else it's condition will give a guide as to the internal state of the overdrive. The filter sits on top of three magnetic washers, which should also be cleaned of ferromagnetic particles before reassembly. The best tool to remove the plug is a 'C' spanner of suitable size. In the absence of this you could unscrew the plug by gently tapping on one of the ears with a brass drift.
