Hi folks,

Seems I can only find one of the gear oil quarts in my workshop - a friend of mine must have taken it without telling me. I didn't realize this until I had already drained the gear oil out of my differential. I have one new quart in the differential now, and it appears to me that more could be added. I stuck a bit of wire in there to check the level, and it is way below the fill hole, with the car on a slight forward incline. Is it safe for me to drive the car with the diff this low on fluid, at least to town and back to get more oil?

Thanks!

Ari
