My 100 hour service is rapidly coming up, had a few questions for any weekend warrior mechanics. I am trying to cut back on the $350 labor charge they want. I wanted to go over what people are changing out.
All fluids changed (engine & filter, trans, vdrive)
Fuel filter change
New spark plugs
New impeller
Clean air filter (K&N)
Check belt
Anything else to replace or inspect?
Also had a few other questions...
Is the impeller change really as easy as it looks? Remove the impeller cover, and replace with a new one? re-install the cover? any other tricks to this?
For transmission service, seems like most are just replacing the fluids? That is what I did on it at 60 hrs. Holds 2 qts of fluid, I was able to pump out about 1.75 qts.
V-drive, simply drain and refill with 30w oil. (holds 2 pints)
Any other advice or recommendations greatly appreciated.
Thanks....
