nathanwhittaker 50 #57 Posted September 28, 2014 As you can see by one of the pictures tge gear box was full of water and oil. In fact about 15 litres of water came out befor any oil did. My next stage is too clean the gearbox out and put some new oil in it. James freed up the levers up for me so just need too put it all back together and see if she moves. The exhaust is just a temporary one while I get a proper one sorted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #58 Posted September 28, 2014 Nathan, fill the gearbox with hydraulic oil and drive around a bit. It'll clean out residue gunge. 1 diggerjames reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
