I am opening up the gearbox to get some debris from the destroyed gear oil filler cap. Are there any cautions I need to be aware of?
Second, what kind of oil do I need to replace it with?
Puch gearbox

forgot to mention that it is a 178 Puch Maxi II
Re: Puch gearbox
Just remember how it came apart, take note of any shims or washers and their placement.

MAKE SURE TO REMOVE THE STAND SPRING ATTACHED TO THE CLUTCH COVER BEFORE YOU START REMOVING SCREWS. IF YOU DON'T THE STRENGTH OF THE SPRING WILL PULL PLATE OUT OF PLACE BEFORE YOU CAN FINISH UNSCREWING..... happened to me this morning :(

Re: Puch gearbox
yeah.... that's what happened to me, not to mention that the shitty weather started acting up out of nowhere and i think a few drops of water got past my ruined gasket and into the clutch area. just hope it wasn't too much
Re: Puch gearbox
you're going to want to refill the gearbox with Automatic Transmission Fluid Type F.
Re: Puch gearbox
done and done, also sealed it up extra secure with some gasket sealant.
