Silly question, you just unscrew all 4 bleed adapters and pump the brakes until it's all out. Refill and pump brakes until pressure builds back up again. ;) Works great until the next stop...

yeah, ive bled a few brakes, broken a lot of bleed valves,replaced a lot of wheel cylinders. i wonder if these valves stick like the old ones.
so im just curious just how someone did it.
i think its a good thing to do and would like to do mine.

I used a Motive Power Bleeder, simple, pump it up and go to each bleeder until it comes out clean. I use it on our Vette too.

The H3 transfer case is a fill to overflow setup. As an 06 H3, the transfer case fill plug is in the wrong location, it is too low for its installed orientation. After filling it to the overflow point through the fill port, put the plug back in and add 250 ml more through the speed sensor port. Alternately, you can raise the front end about 25 cm to get those last 250 ml into the case through the fill port.

That's kinda what started me wondering about the original question...how would you know you were low on transfer case fluid and not know where the fill plug was located?

Kind of, no dip stick BUT the breather vent hose is located on the firewall behind the tranny dip stick. Pull the vent cap off and I use a turkey baster to fill through the hose. I have done it several times and saves on oil dripping down your arm laying on your back. I replaced the hose since the old one was cracked and relocated it next to the dip stick for better access.

Well my yoke slider has a leak and I needed to fill it again.

But how would you know HOW low it was, and how much to add, unless you check out the level at the fill plug?:confused:

Gomer 04-29-2016 02:50 AM

Oops sorry was thinking transmission not transfer case brain fart there. But learned where the breather tube is so yay. Lol.

You know your transfer needs refill when you see drops of oil coming out from your slider and your undercarriage is all soaked. I didn't know how much it needed but for sure the level was decreasing.

rsc 04-29-2016 05:44 PM

I know a few drops isn't bad, sounds like you had a little bit more that a few drops. Good thing you caught it before it went dry!
