Does that translate to 11 full quarts or 22 1/2 quarts??? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I did my BX22 hyd trans fluid change, filter change & strainer clean it it was 2.8 gallons. That amount sticks in my head since I only got one 2.5 gallon + 2 qt and was short.
So the weird post of Full 22 1/2 qt (11 qt or 2.5 g) is within like 15% per the manual. Close enough for me.

Strainer was easy. Had some metal particles on it (normal). Just make sure you have the o-ring in the correct spot when re-installing together.
I cleaned it (strainer) with brake clean and made sure it was dry before re-installing. Alsi put a small drop of oil on o-ring also.

"...it was 2.8 gallons. That amount sticks in my head since I only got one 2.5 gallon + 2 qt and was short."
Sorry, now I'm even more confused! /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
I think you are saying that 2.5 gallons plus two quarts was not quite enough ("was short"), but that adds up to three gallons, which is more than 2.8 gallons... /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
Maybe I'm not reading something right -- wouldn't be the first time. So far we have reports of everything from 2.75 gallons (22 half-quarts = 11 quarts = 2 gallons + 3 quarts) to 3.75 gallons (1 gallon + 1 quart left in a five gallon jug). /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
Another 20 hours or so and I'll know for sure! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Now that I have done a wonderful job of messing every one up here I go. Maybe this will clear this up.
I used (1) 2.5 gallon jug along with (2) qt of Hyd fluid for tranny. So that is I was short and had to add an additional qt of fluid. I also spilt some so it could be +/- 0.5 qt
If you get a total of 3-gallons you will be fine.

OK, I think I got it that time!
I should be in good shape then (if I don't spill any!). I bought 12 quarts, plus I have one more that the dealer gave me earlier "just in case." I think I'll pick up another quart of engine oil though, as he only gave me three.
Looking forward to the "fun" -- hope it is warmer when the time comes.
