I think I need to change the transmission fluid in my 2001 Tomos Targa, since it makes quite a bit of noise before finally shifting from first to second gear, and it won't shift going uphill. I found the drain plug on the underside of the tranny, but where do you add the new oil? I took off the plastic guards, but still couldn't find a fill point. Do I have to strip off the carb or something? Please help!
Theres a screw on top of the case where you add fluid
YES !!!!!!
On the side , you have a screw . Remove it and when oil come out, it's full....
A whining noise is normal and not many will shift while pulling a hill, if it dont shift normaly on level ground you may need to cut groves in the 1st gear clutches only. Doug D.
You should replace you Transmission fluid every 500 miles. Do not over fill. Replace with 7 oz's of the recommended transmission fluid. Make sure the area around the fill and drain plugs are clean before you loosen.
