Re: gearbox prob
I think mosy 406 gearboxes take 1.9L of oil from empty but without knowing which type you have it could be more or less.
Silly question but how do you know its empty? To get the level correct all you need do is fill it with the correct grade of oil either through the reverse light switch hole or the filler/level hole until it overflows from the level hole.
