Hello,
While trying to drain my transaxle, I removed what I thought was the drain plug. Found out it wasn't. When I removed the bolt, out fell a spring and metal ball. I was able to rotate the transaxle upside down and drop the ball back in, put the spring back in, then put the bolt back. So my question is what is this? Did I create a new problem for me? Thank you.  |

Just so you don't have another one of the moments make sure the fill plug can be removed before you drain the transmission (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
