Well, it was a great day to change the oil. Did that and
 then decided to replace the gear box oil since it had been 3 years. The
 Moss catalog says 8.6 pints. I bought a pump to pump the MT90 in behind
 the radio. Sounded like a good idea to use a pump. I put in 3 Qts and
decided to check with the dip stick. Said I was over by about a Qt.
Thought I could just reverse the pump and suck some out. Then the
proverbial fan was hit. The 5 inch hose fell off and into the gear box.
Took everything out and removed the top of the gear box and fished the
hose out put it all back together. What a pain. So, exactly how much
does the gear box hold? It now read right on with just two Qts. Am I
missing something?
