  1. Just changed the PTU oil, with thanks to you guys. Just a few suggestions to make things maybe a little easier from what I found: Don't have to remove the air filter housing; just remove the connection between the air filter housing and the manifold by unscrewing the two gear clamps. (you will have to disconnect the plastic clips that hold the vacuum hoses, two of them. The vent cap on the vent tube from the PTU is easily removed using a small pliers and grab the vent cap at the base and twist and pull it out. Heat the oil in to about 120 - 130 F to reduce the viscosity of the oil for easier pouring....(put the oil container in a pan and pour hot water at about 120F into the pan. Keep the oil jug in the hot water bath) Connect clear plastic tubing over the top of the rubber vent hose. Use a 1/2" ID tubing; dip the end in hot water for a few seconds and then fling out any water and push tubing over the end of the vent hose. On the other end of the tubing push into the plastic tubing a long thin transmission oil funnel. (I held up the funnel using a string to help) Get another piece of longer plastic tubing, "1/4 OD, to act as a straw. After you pour some warm oil into the funnel, insert the straw into the funnel so that it reaches all the way just down into the rubber vent hose. Start blowing bubbles.....this introduces air and helps burp the air out of the vent hose, and the oil goes down a lot faster. Hope this helps. God accomplishes everything we do!
