Is this easy to do with it on the car?

If so any hint & tips........ I know YUM has some experience with dropping gearboxes

 

its possible, you need to remove the drain plug obviously, drain and refit. Then refull from the filler plug using a squeezy bottle, or if you have the patience and thumb strength.. an oil pump can.

a right c'unt of a job though!

 

So are the drain plug & refill plugs easy to locate............


Or are they a right C'unt to find

 

thats all you're getting


fuck off you c'unt!!

 

Charming..................Is that your middle name?

Or is it Dave JAMES HUNT Mulheran

 

Anyway back on topic before a mod sends this to the muppet room!!

 

plugs are on the passenger side of gearbox dont remove the transfer box one by mistake

 

And i suppose holding my breathe for someone with a nice picture showing this, will result in me turning blue........................

 

buy a set of the manuals you tight fisted c'unt!

mandatory requirement for ALL escort cosworth owners!

has lots of lovely drawings to show you.

if i can take a picture, i will and post it.

 

make sure you can remove the refil plug before you drain the oil

 

Good thinking Andy............I take it a FRIEND OF YOURS Had done this

Dave - Cee U Next Tuesday!

And if i could find a manual with all this info etc........I'd buy it like yesterday!!

So you not a useless C'nut after all

 

so what g/box and tranfer oil are you using
and how much does they hold
any one

 

didnt get that far, have ordered a disc off fleabay today so hopefully i'll be specc'd up!

I'll probably use whatever Bernie recommends TBH - Morris's?!?!

 

bought mine from ford..

 

the gearbox and transfer box use different oils .. piss easy to do .... do both on mine every year
not got any pics tho ..sorry
think the box holds just over 2 ltrs and transfer just over a ltr..
gearbox uses a specific oil tho .. cant remember what i used this year
