Differential cover testing from Gale Banks

[97 SL320]

See what Gale Banks has to say about fluid levels in a differential but it will apply to any flooded lube gear system. This is part 1 and 2, part 3 has not been posted yet.

Also dig around on the net to see what Gale Banks has to say about diesel smoke and power.

No part 3 yet, just a side bar. I'm surprised how much the oil foams up.

What's going on behind your stock diff cover?

You would also like the drag racer Warren Johnson, he came at the problem from an engineering perspective. Raised on a farm, he had the 60's NASA " We are going to the moon before the decade is out " work ethic all too lacking today.

I like his straightforward no BS style, and the ability to back it up with intelligence.
