Ya know! I have no idea. Good reason for me to go read all the rest of the tests in the manual all the way through!



Umm... Not to bad if I do say so myself! It took me all of about 35 minutes to find the answer to that one. That would be from the time of my last post above and right now as I am typing this (well, trying to anyway!).

Anyway!

They are whats loosely called, lube taps. You can use them to check the state of fluid flow through different parts of the transmission. I cannot find any detailed information on these little buggers in the manual, but I did find some articles that point out a few small details about them. Very vague though.

I know that the one in the middle is called the CT port. What that is, I have no idea. The other two are as follows; front lube tap, used check flow to the differential area and the other is a cooler flow tap that allows you to check the flow of fluid through the radiator.

I think I know how to find out some more info... links to come!
