Hi again folks! I am attempting to change the final drive oil in my Swing. I read a post from someone who uses a Mixmizer injector with an extension tube, so I bought one. The extension tube is too wide to go into the top hole from which I removed the bolt. I have seen other posts where some people are using squeeze bottles and they attach a tube. Others are using oil cans. Could I please request a few pictures of what is being used so that I can know what to get? Thank you very much!

Can you connect some clear tubing to the extender tube? Then you can measure what you need in the injector and squeeze the oil in without overflowing. They sell various tube sizes at home improvement stores I would assume.

Just thought of another solution- use a syringe (one with the rubber plunger) and attach the plastic line of appropriate diameter to it, then you can measure out pretty well how much oil for the rear drive. I might do just that when it’s time to swap the drive fluid.

I used an oil can from Amazon. The metal tube without the copper nozzle worked well. The rubber tube without the nozzle probably would have worked also.

My 2¢: It’s much easier to refill the final drive if the black belt case covers are removed first. That way the tapered end of the plastic syringe can fit directly into that ill-designed fill hole.

I use an oil can as well (Harbor Freight I believe).

I agree with Cosmic Jumper (removing black belt case cover) so in case there is a little dribble -easy clean up

I did do mine without removing the black cvt case cover. It was quite easy. The small amount of oil that did drip down the case was easy to clean up.
