On YouTube Grant West suggests using 90 wt oil after a rebuild. He also suggest removing and adding oil via an inlet tube. I’ve looked mine over and can’t find the inlet. Does anyone know if and how I can add oil? Mine has a slow leak at the motor/transmission junction so I fear gear damage.

Thanks

Larry

The sheet metal pan in the bottom of the transmission has a rubber plug in it.

Mine is a 2008. Does your sealed bearing work for this 5hp?
