Kenne Bell Supercharger Gear Oil

I have been using the kenne bell for 3 years, it's made by Lucas oil USA, buy it off eBay USA cheap
It's recommended for gm superchargers, its synthetic and comes in a 237 ml bottle, great for top ups.
I've used it on a wh series 2 and vy Calais superchargers and trumps every time.

Ok silly question but is there any way to actually check the level or do you just suck it dry and replace?

Oil level should be just at the base of the hole where you have just taken the allen screw out of. (the filler hole).

I use the genuine GM blower oil.
It is vastly different to engine oil and I recommend you use it.
I've also heard of people putting 85W 140 in there, but for the money to get the RIGHT oil, its not worth experimenting with.
the GM bottles are 4 fluid ounces, you will need 1 and a half bottles.
Also, a large syringe with a bit of aquarium tube on the end works well for pulling the old oil out.

This is the best method to extract the old oil,
I did it on mine, and less messy.
Supercharger oil is not cheap, but you can get it at a good price on eBay.
And you can re-fill it the same way, after I replaced the bearings and seal not long ago.

Make sure your park on a level surface to refill it, as mentioned earlier, the level is to the bottom of the filler plug.
