Status: offline 		Hi All ........... I've got an oil leak coming from the transmission gasket, can't get a new gasket till end of the week. Is there a dip stick or a way to keep an eye on the oil level ?
Silly question (again) ?

The dip stick is the large allan flat head. Check your tranny screws the tranny does not normally leak for no reason on the top.

Status: offline 		I have a 98 LR and every now and then my transmission will come out the vent tube when its running on the kick stand. I like to have never figured out where it was coming from. Mine has a dipstick so I am of no help to you. Keep reading the forums here and you will learn a bunch like I have.
