Travlinman.... what's the latest status?? When you changed oil, did you do all three holes? You fill primary through the derby cover, just to the bottom of the clutch plates. Usually less than a quart. Engine and trans are two separate systems, have two drain plugs and two fill holes. Don't mean to sound like you don't know what you are doing, but sometimes we can get confused. Also there are you tube videos that show changing oil in these systems.
Just would like to know if you got your issues solved and you're back on the road!!!
