I just got an 03 TB without a manual but want to change gear oil in the transmission. I have some Lucas and Quaker State 80W/90 but cant figure where the drain and filler plugs are located on the engine. Can anyone help?

 

This is from the service manual. I can email you a copy of that page if you want to PM me your email address.

 

I wouldnt recomend the 85-90 0il.These trannys are actually chain cases and need proper lube.

 

Hey scooter...thanks for the pics they really helped. Thought I was good to go with the 80W90 oil but the comments from ftwflh have me concerned I should be using something else. I actually have some 85W90 Honda 2 stroke racing gear oil in addition to the Lucas and QS 80W90. Advice or suggestions on these or something else? We needed to get the oil changed before Friday bc we are taking the kids up to a campsite Friday for weekend riding. Please help if you can. Thanks.

 

I'm with Ftwflh and would just use the Polaris fluid. Doesn't take that much, so you'll have extra. I'm sure others will tell you of stuff that will work too, but just for the piece of mind, the few extra dollars was worth it to me.

And you're welcome. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] If you need anything else from the manual, just let me know.

 

I dont live anywhere near a polaris dealer. Guess I can call them and have it shipped but seems like the right aftermarket standard brand would work. The dealer I called could not tell me if the gear oil weight and the service department claimed ignorance as well.

 

Amsoil makes a chain case lube that will work
