I have a 1989 Jcb 4 wheel drive 1400b backhoe serial # 14bt4110360914 7 ... It shifts Forward/ Reverse ( book calls it a syncro shift) on the left side of the steering wheel column and has a 4 speed manual shift on the right side on the floor( with clutch pedal on left side of brake pedals) ...It has only one fill tube or spout instead of 2 to the transmision ... I need to know a recommended modern fluid to use in the transmision .... the book says to use jcb special transmision fluid and gives a international spec of ESP-M2C 33G ... My oil distributer says that spec is no longer available and not valid anymore... I have been told to use 10 w motor oil by one jcb dealer and 10 wt hydrolic oil by another ....I have also been told to use type f and type fa transmision fluid and another jcb dealer said to use dextron 3 ATF... also have been told to use 10 wt tractor oil HELP HELP HELP

the next question is how do i change to the new fluid and drain the torque converter... the current fluid in thte backhoe is red in color... That does not mean its the right fluid... the equipment dealer I bought the backhoe from is not much help in this matter and doesnt know or wont say... I fiqure and trust you Guys might know the deffinitve answer to these question

thank for your help in advance

Don

The recomended was ATF, we now use Castrol TCF410 in the syncroshift and powershift boxes and I think it is also spec'd for the new 6 speed Torquelock boxes. There may, but not always be a drain plug in the torque converter thro an inspection opening under the flywheel housing, turn the converter over by hand to find it. The trans has a drain plug and also a gauze filter that can be cleaned with a bit of fuel and blown through. Check level frequently after changing untill it settles.
