Pipe thread is tapered thread.

Re: Too much gear lube
Does your oil look foamy at all? Air in the oil will increase the level.
I was having an issue with 600W foaming in my transmission. I switched to Lucas 85w-150. Problem solved.

Re: Tools/supplies needed while traveling

Re: Sealed beams
I have been using the "new" LED's for ~ 2 years now. Not exactly new... I especially like that they don't use the reflector because I use the original parking light with amber bulbs for my front turn...
