I have found that if you fill until it runs out of the fill hole and then close
your eyes and take a nap, once you awaken you can top it off again. Also, your
wife doesn't bother you because she thinks you are working on the car.

Sorry about the prior no-content reply. What I was trying to say:
If you both drain thru the plug and undo and clean the big brass plug
you may find you need to fill as described, then run it a bit and fill
some more. IOW, I don't think the oil finds its way back into the OD
unit until the thing has been run and you could get a false 'full'
read at the fill plug.
If this is not the case someone will straighten me out.
