draining kadett diff fluid

roundl · 05-24-2005

I see the fill plug on the differential. Is there a drain plug on the bottom of the diff or do I just remove the cover and replace the seal?

If you remove the bottom central bolt on the differential cover, the fluid should start draining out.

would you recommend 80 or 90 w?
