    got one yesterday to swap into my 80, went to change and look at the fluid in it and out comes like 4 drops of what looks like motor oil. Any way what type of fluid should i use gear oil? auto tranny fluid? and how much?

    fill till it runs out the filler plug on the side, make sure you do it while level. and find the leak.
