Front driver side wheel well. At the very front, there is a black canister looking thing. What is this?

 

Vacuum canister, for your 4wd system

 

thx

 

Double Dry Hopped IPA behind will follow shortly...

 

My 5VZ-FE 4wd manual v6 is missing the top fill hole. There also isn't any fill hole under the hood for trans fluid.

 

Damn, I didn't realize they built such an assortment of high quality commercial stuff! I got sent to Bergamo Italy a few years ago for training on Cardi concrete drills, it was a fantastic trip and their production facility was so eccentric with trying to shoehorn modern tech in multiple hundred year old building.

I'd love to take another trip where I could visit a bunch of facilities like the Cardi one

 

Theres no dip stick or tube for the manual trans under the hood like the auto trans has. Auto transmissions are more...delicate...so they give them the ability to monitor the fluid level. Not really necessary for a manual.

But there's no fill port on the transmission right above the drain port? That wouldn't make any sense. I'll crawl under mine tomorrow just to make sure I'm not crazy and the pic I posted is the right one

 

I'll post a pic tomorrow as well.

 

I thought I was looking at some industrial Cerwin-Vega setup

 

You have the v6? Or the 4cyl

I'm not sure if the 4cyl trans has the same drain and fill locations as the 6cyl

 

Oh she runs like a dream. I’m gonna paint it black and make it look like a Mercury four stroke haha.

 

Yea but the sound and smell will be a dead give away

 

That’s why you turn up the music and point at the barbecue grill

 

Naw, missing the red surrounds

How do you make holy water?







































































You boil the hell out of it

 

I'm telling you... using that Opti2 will take care of the smell at least

 

What's the difference between

 

v6

 

My kids are related to the Benelli family through their maternal grandmother. We visited them in Pesaro on our honeymoon. They sold the arms and motorcycle companies years ago. I had one of the motorcycles back when I was a teen. Strange how it turned out that I would one day marry into the family.

Isn't the smell the best part about a 2-stroke?
