Can't speak as to the Eldo, but I changed the rear end lube on Cedar
when I got home today. A 35mm plastic film canister will hold 30 ml when
full to the top. Six full shots from the canister fills the rear end
perfectly.

| Vince. I don't have any direct experience with this but I remember reading in Guzziology that the level plugs in these beasts are notoriously off, especially the Eldo rear drive. Richardson recommends not using the level plugs and only filling oil by pouring in a measured amount. I've done this once so far. A plastic measuring cup in the bake ware section of Wal mart has these with a handy spout too. Pete |
