I stuck the bottle in a pail of hot water to warm it up and tried again. Made a word of difference. But, that stuff is pretty darn viscous when its cold.

Yea, if only the darn Honda mechanic had used a torque wrench it never would have happened. :)

Amsoil have new containers which are bags where you just cut the tip off and you can squeeze the whole thing into the diff, this is what I used and didn't have to use a pump. Super easy especially when there's not much room to fill the diff.

Ask for the bag type next time you pick some up.

I was tempted by that last time I ordered. But, will it work in the tight spaces we have on the S2k?

Yup! works perfect, it took less than a minute to fill the diff. I just cut the tip off and then squeezed the bag almost to empty and let the extra drain out of the diff.

I had about 1/8th left of the bag of fluid.
