<VV> Diff Fluid Level

[J R Read_HML]

The 90wt just takes a while to return to the sump.  If you are really 
concerned, you can check (and add) from under the car.  The diff and tranny 
share the 90wt, so do both as they are most likely both at the 3/4 level.

Recently, I got a bit lazy - put a hose on the nipple of the quart of 90wt 
and added through the dip-stick tube.  I gave the 90wt about 30 seconds or 
so in the microwave just to help it flow a little better.  Try that at you 
own risk.

Later, JR
