I have an oil gun that I bought from Sears years ago. Its a cylinder the
same size as a grease gun with a manuallly operated pistone and a long
flexible hose. It works just like a syringe. Its invaluable for
differentials and gearboxes. In fact, for the TR3, you use the same oil in
each (see my previous post...)
