Yeah.


Guess I did go into motorworld for it, but he did
check some book and say that's what I needed.

I think the capacity of the box is 2.1 litres, but some will always stay in it.
Fill it until it trickles out of the filler plug hole.

Dumbass!!!!!!! I let the fluid out of the side and then started to refill through the top before realising that thats where the clutch lives!!Luckily i only put a drop in there, what was i thinking!!! It seems okay now though, clutch slipped a few times but i took it for a good spin and its stopped doing it now, hope i havent done any damage!! And second gear crunch better be cured!!! :laugh: :grin: :cry: :cool: :angry: :wink:
