DK gearbox - where is the filler / level plug !!
Posted: 19 Oct 2006, 11:21
OK - I think I must be going daft.
I enquired a week or so ago re what tool I need to fill the gearbox on my DG, fitted with a DK gearbox. I was told it was a 17mm hex type key.
OK so I got one of them and crawled underneath to make sure the filler / level plug came out OK before draining.
I have seen the drain plug on a std DG box, but mine was not in the same place, so with torch in one hand and oily rag in the other, I wiped, shone the torch all around the box, left side, right side, rear face, even felt around the top.
BUT I cannot find a filler / level plug
I know some more modern boxes are "sealed for life" ( Pah !! ) but surely not this one ?
Any thoughts folks ?
