[T2] 2nd gear problems

[david raistrick]

er.  you use a pump.  they are usually right next to the gear oil. if not ask the desk jockey where the gear oil pump is.

typically same pump fits qt and gallon.

....may not fit mtl as well, but drop rhe hose in the hole and pump it out anyway

insert the clip end into the side of the trans and pump until it starts to overflow.  close it up

if you have redux boxes you need to check it a bit later since the boxes might have trapped air...
