manxgasser Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 Wondering what best measurment for 03 pro 280 on gear box oil? Any one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterb Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 Hi there, From brand new, these have 550ml in the gearbox. When re-filling, about 50ml or more stays behind, so best to re-fill with 500ml. If there is too much, it always exits the breather anyway. Change the oil often as it lubes both main bearings aswell as the clutch and gears, say every 30-40 hours use. Use only mineral oil, 10 weight or an Auto Transmission Fluid (ATF) rated to Dexron III. Bye, PeterB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterb Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Hi gasserian, I agree, forgot it was an 03 model. 400ml is correct for this year. 550ml was spec'd for 04 onwards. Thanks for correcting this, a senior moment! Bye, PeterB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ned1 Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 shirty recomends putting 400ml in 05 gassers aswell. although it does say 500ml in the handbook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
