Awaiting the "GONG" from Watto HVA  ;) . His dad, The Amazing Bill Watson swears by ATF : told me in simple terms,get 2 litres, 200cc in each fork leg and the other 1600 in the gearbox, job's done. You've gotta remember, that's what they used back in the day.
And his word's way good enough for me, he's been dicking round with Huskies since 1965 and had a hatload of them... :D
Nostalgia's not what it used to be....

Oil is that thin it,s now leaking out of the water pump drain hole  :o

Finally happy  :)
Steel plates , ATF and ended up fitting a 85/400 clutch cam [ has more travel ]
Works well and releases without motor running.
Can now clutch start the thing if I want. ;D
