Quad Box Oil


HeyCharger

Recommended Posts

More help please. I note that my TRQ-7210 should take 36 pints (about 17 litres) of oil. When I filled my quad to the level-filler plug it only took about half this and when I checked the sump plug for the compund case, there was no oil in there. NO, I have not been driving it like this.

How does the oil get to the compound section?

Should I just put the correct amount into the box via the top?

Thanks. Regards, Rod.

Ok. I believe there is quite a bit of sludge on the bottom of the cases.

I really don't want to put flushing oil in it. And I don't really want to contaminate the new oil I put into it.

I read somewhere that kerosene may disolve the sludge. The motor still has not been fired up yet and so I'm just wondering if I could put, say, about half a gallon (2 litres) of kero in it and let it sit for a few days.

Thoughts? Thanks, Rod.
