This is on an eMax25 but may relate to others.
I changed the gear oil in the front axle. There are 3 drains, no problem there. But there are two vents along with the fill/level cap. So, my question is... With the drain plugs in and the vent plugs out. Will oil put in the fill cap move to the outside steering/gear areas or do I need to pour oil into the vent cap for those areas??
My expectation was to leave the vents out and pour the oil in the fill, letting it level and fill the steering/gear voids.
The manual is lacking... (everyone say 'YES')
