G'day fellas thought I might entertain you guys and see what you think in regards to the green color of the oil that I emptied outta my trackhawks supercharger (gearcase). No smell at all, it's like totally opposite to the special supercharger oil I sought from capa performance here in Oz.
Definitely wouldn't surprise me if previous owner oiled her up with transmission fluid, removed bottom right bolt on gearcase and drain the oil out onto a sheet. There was shitloads of it even removed the heatshield attached to bottom of supercharger prior to draining, yep full of oil stains too smh!
He even cut out holes for the breather ports incorrectly 😄
I'm the third owner, purchased May of this year and unfortunately if there was an award for being naive, blind and for buying Australia's most abused/covered up trackhawk I'd probably win it 😃
Thank you @Hunter, removed the supercharger minus a hoist carefully by hand using your timber hardwood method.
