So I read the sticky, but I have no idea how to even get to that stage where that piece is out.. Im ignorant about these things, so if someone could tell me where I have to fill it I'd greatly appreciate it!!

 

i just filled mine a few days ago..all you have to do is move the carperting out of the way where the pump is and just open the top of the fluid reservoir with an allen wrench and just pour the fluid in with a funnel or something...also you should use mineral oil because that is what is recommended by the factory

 

wait, so mineral oil and not hydraulic fluid?

 

i've been searching and there's no definite answer.

1. some say that there's a TSB saying that using or leaving the stock hydraulic fluid will cause an eventual leak around the seals...and that MINERAL OIL should be used instead.......

this??

2. other threads says that it's NOT the hydraulic floorjack oil found in autoparts store....which could damage the convertible pump.

anyone know for sure? thanks.

 

Hyd fluid will work....its a little thick but it works fine. Mineral oil is what you should use though.
