Filling up gearbox oil on a 2.0 ltr

Post by Frantic » Fri Jul 10, 2009 8:04 pm

After a repair of a leaking driveshaft hose (gearbox side)
I tried to fill up the gearbox of this 2.0 ltr engine
It took me 1 hour to pour 1 ltr in
What am I doing wrong?
A small rectangle plastic box seems the only place to fill
Is there another quicker and easier method?
