No idea if this has ever been serviced, drained the gear lube and it is a pale "green pea soup" color. Is that normal? Every other one I have seen has been light grey to black depending on how old. Out of a C50 if it makes a difference. Have not plugged it up and refilled it yet, going to let it drip for a day.
Thanks

That is a normal color for it. If it is grey it usually means some bad parts in there. Black means it hasn't been changed for a long time.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

That's good. Just a new one for me. No filings on the bottom of the drain pan so i guess were good to go with a refill.
Thanks
