Default First Oil and Diff Fluid change

Well today was the day . Time to do a little maint on the Little Dragon as I call her!
Changed the oil at 1745 miles with Mobil Drive Clean 10W30 plus a can of Mr.Moly Break In . And of course new PCX filter .
Next was the Diff Fluid and you guys were definitely right this fluid was dark and all kinds off stuff on the magnetic plug! Got 800 ml in before my Gear Oil Pump was getting nothing but air. Used clean cool whip container and poured the remaining 200 ml in and used pump to put another 100 ml in and then I knew she was full because it started pouring out in droves! So I would guess about 850ml went in.
Had to reuse the diff drain washer for the Honda place gave me the wrong one.
No leaks so far!
Thanks to Xviper and RR for the invaluable knowledge for this project!
It was kinda scary jacking this car up for the first time!!!

its funny, i did the engine oil and diff fluid at 2000 miles and had the same results. you did a good job...some of the s2000's on the road right now won't see a diff. change until 15-30k miles which is insane IMO.
