How much oil goes into the chain case on an 80's Fire series? Is it like an auto and fill until it comes out the fill hole? Also what weight is used?
Thanks, Dennie

I use ATF in all chaincases. 80/90 does not flow in colder temps. It all depends on what your general temps are. I live in Manitoba and the winters can get a bit cold ( especially this year or so it seems ) Maybe I'm getting older. Anyway, ATF still flows in colder temps and works fine when it warms up.
