Again for clarity (little water in the gearcase joke?) if "you" change
the gearcase oil you "must" use their dealer only gearcase oil or your
warranty on the gearcase will be toast. Why don't they just change the
oil annually like everyone else?? because it's dealer only oil & in the
US they'd have to give it away & believe me considering the engine
pricing the dealers are cleaning up on every little E-Tec dollar they can.

Let us know how it goes?? I'm betting they'll rip you off big time.

Good luck.

Thanks for the advice. Sounds like you really have something against
these motors though. There seem to be many reports of people using
them for several years with no problems. Not trying to start an E-tec
vs. 'whatever' thread though.
