MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 0B-21
Change
1) Inspect transmission case for evidence of fluid leakage.
Repair leaky point, if any.
2) Make sure that vehicle is placed level for fluid level check.
3) Change fluid. For its procedure, refer to On-vehicle service in
Section 7B1.
Fluid cooler hose change
Replace inlet and outlet hoses of cooler hose and their clamps.
For replacement procedure, refer to On-vehicle service in Section
7B1.
ITEM 6-12 and 6-13
Transfer and Differential Oil Inspection and Change
Inspection
1) Check transfer case and differential for evidence of oil leakage.
Repair leaky point if any.
2) Make sure that vehicle is placed level for oil level check.
3) Remove level plug of transfer or differentials (front and rear) and
check oil level.
Oil level can be checked roughly by means of level plug hole.
That is, if oil flows out of level plug hole or if oil level is found up
to hole when level plug is removed, oil is properly filled.
If oil is found insufficient, pour specified amount of specified oil
referring to Section 7D, 7B or 7F.
4) Tighten level plug to specified torque.
Refer to Section 7D, 7E or 7F for tightening torque.
Change
Change transfer oil or differentials oil with new specified oil referring
to Section 7D, 7E and 7F respectively.
