I changed mine today. It took about 1/2 hour. I put some pictures up here: HTTP://TEG.NET/RANGEROIL/ When I removed the drain plug hardly anything came out...
Did the same thing on Saturday (July 7,2007) The only difference, I removed the tire to have a better access to the plug. It took a lot of torque to get the...
I have a Ranger EV, not a RAV. I have never used the Larkspur location as I live in Sunnyvale. When I have reviewed EVCharger News for north bay (Marin...
