Thought I would share this with you.
I made a transmission filler last night because when replacing the clutch in my gti I felt new gear oil was in order. After refilling many 914 transmissions over the years I know what a pain it is. Here is what I did using one gallon plastic garden sprayer I cut the nozzle a couple inches from the handle and attached about 6 inches of silicone hose with a small band clamp. (got it off my old hand oil pump line. then I put the gear oil in and pumped it up. duct taped the trigger open and let it fill up.. worked great. |

so the idea behind the one I made was, put 2.5 quarts of gear oil in the container, pump it up, lock the trigger and eat dinner, when dinner is done, the trans is full.
