    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

83 650 secondary gear lubrication

So following the lubrication chart on page 5-19 of the service manual, the secondary bevel gears are lubed via the engine oil...correct?? I got some gear oil to do the rear final drive and the secondary gear but all I see is the big drain nut. No filler hole or full level hole like earlier shafties. So i looked at the manual and just want to be sure of the way the gears are getting lubrication.

Engine oil only. When you change the oil you need to also drain the secondary gear cavity. There are two drain plugs so to speak.
 
Thats what I was thinking and thanks for the confirmation. Changed the final drive oil already.
