My friend hsa an 04 ultra and thought he was taking out the tranny drain plug and mistakenly unscrewed a small alan head screw on the bottom of the engine case on the right side of the case. about a half cup of what looked like engine oil drained out. What the heck was that ??
Thanks
the one you labeled "primary, 1 of 2. so when you drain the primary with the drain plug on the primary case you do not nee to touch the other one. what is it there for?

I believe that was where they plum in the engine temp gauge.
It's the drain plug for the crankcase. You pull it to check for sumping. 1/2 cup oil is good. The one to use for your oil temp gauge is the one marked "crank" in soos's picture.

did you ever find out
Watt those bolts where. I did the same thing but I can’t unscrew mine I’m thinking it’s for the oil son that sits there in the bottom of the crank case. Maybe you could drain it out that way
