You've got a good cart there. Mobil 1 10w-30, 1qt only. NGK- BPR2ES plug. Have fun. Check the clutches and belt.

Is the sealer fresh? Maybe they changed the lube. The only way to drain the gear lube is to remove the cover. Pull the plug and stick your pinkie in the hole. It should be full to the point of overflowing...

the sealer is clear, and has the look of a few years, they might of taken it off as you say to change the lube. that's really good maintance if they did, I would of prob sucked it out and replace, anyway it ran home fine, I live in a gated lake community, that allows golf carts on the streets, its a cart fans dream;;;;; you should see some of the carts here, its a lot of retired people, so we need hobbies, I had a stock 02 yami. sold it, these people were moveing and could not use there cart anymore, I was in the right place at the right time,, I figure the mods and labor, would come to what I paid for the cart, he wanted 25, I looked at it he called me the next day, said the moveing van was in the drive way, 2150 come and get it, it took me 5 min. to get there,, i jes it was my long awated turn for a deal,,,,, thanks for the help Dave;; Steve i did put 2 more pictures of it in the cart pictures, yesterday;;;;
