There you are you old Six Pack!!As shared with Triumphs list: =C2=A0I thoug=
ht I had the silver bullet today. =C2=A0I had read what type transmission o=
il to use.Had a couple ideas working. =C2=A0One was go to NAPA and get the =
oil. =C2=A0I did with the nicecounterman help find a Quart of SAE 80W90 and=
 a pretty cool hand pump that would pump it upthrough the drain hole. =C2=
=A0I found a hose to which I wrapped the right amount of tape so this tubew=
ent into the hole without losing a drop. =C2=A0Generally, I got the entire =
quart in the gearbox with very littlespillage. =C2=A0I couldn't wait to fir=
e the beast up and run through the gears. =C2=A0Which I did. =C2=A0The firs=
t go=C2=A0through went like BUTTER. Then I took it out of gear eased up on =
the clutch and went back to square 1No entry into the holy 4speed. =C2=A0To=
ok a look at the clutch master and I could see dark fluid. So, I guess=C2=
=A0my next purchase will be new gaskets. =C2=A0 Do I need more fluid in the=
 transmission? =C2=A0I still can't getthe bolt out where I could see it's b=
eing topped off. =C2=A0 Hey Jacksonville guys, any hands on helpwould be gr=
eatly appreciated.. =C2=A0For example, my wife has two Dr. Appointments tom=
orrow. =C2=A0While at NAPAI picked up the Haynes Repair Manual For '98 Maxi=
ma hoping to get a breakthrough clue about the=C2=A0mysterious shut off swi=
tch.Hertz is getting rich off us. =C2=A0Anyway, I'll post this in the Six P=
ack also. =C2=A0The more the merrier.
