Technician A says that when a differential carrier pinion angle exceeds 7 degrees,lube level should be checked at the banjo housing fill hole.Technician B says that when correcting the lube level in differential carrier housings,the best way is to remove both fill plugs and pump oil into the fill plug at the side of the carrier until it begins to spill from the fill hole in the banjo housing.Who is correct?
