Transmission Gear Oil
2. Transmission Gear Oil
A: INSPECTION
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2) Turn the ignition switch to OFF, and wait until the
engine cools.
3) Remove the oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
4) Reinsert the level gauge all the way. Be sure that
the level gauge is correctly inserted and in the
proper direction.
5) Pull out the oil level gauge again and check the
oil level on it. If it is below the lower level, add oil
through the oil level gauge hole to bring the level up
to the upper level.
B: REPLACEMENT
1) Pull out the oil level gauge.
2) Lift-up the vehicle.
3) Drain the transmission gear oil completely.
CAUTION:
 Directly after the engine has been running,
the transmission gear oil is hot. Be careful not
to burn yourself.
 Be sure not to spill the transmission gear oil
on exhaust pipe to prevent it from emitting
smoke or firing. When the transmission gear oil
is split on exhaust pipe, wipe it away complete-
ly.4) Tighten the transmission gear oil drain plug us-
ing a new gasket.
Tightening torque:
44 N·m (4.5 kgf-m, 32.5 ft-lb) (Aluminum gas-
ket)
70 N·m (7.1 kgf-m, 51.6 ft-lb) (Copper gasket)
5) Lower the vehicle.
6) Pour gear oil into the gauge hole.
Recommended gear oil:
Use GL-5 (75 W — 90) or equivalent.
Gear oil capacity:
Single-range model;
Model without oil pump
3.52 (3.7 US qt, 3.1 Imp qt)
Model with oil pump
3.92 (4.1 US qt, 3.4 Imp qt)
Dual-range model;
4.02 (4.2 US qt, 3.5 Imp qt)
7) Measure the level of transmission gear oil, and
then check the level within the specified range.
CAUTION:
When inserting the level gauge into transmis-
sion gear, align the protrusion on the side of
the top part of level gauge with the notch in the
gauge hole.
