Default Differential Help
Alright, I spent most of my morning in my driveway yesterday doing my first differential fluid change. Its a 10 bolt 8.5 rear Auburn posi unit. standard operating equipment in an impala SS. Now i did the fluid change, but probably spilled out an entire quart of oil. Some one told me it took 4 quarts of oil, but i should have listened to common knowledge and realized there was no way 4 quarts is gonna fit in there.

Anyway. my point is after the fluid change im still only spinning 1 tire, things are exactly the same as before I changed it. Now theres a large possibility that i lost alot of posi additive due to the 1 quart of over flow.

So my question is what are my options from here because my posi still isnt working.

Please any advise, knowledge, suggestions?
