ok guys..had my dale for almost 5 years now and believe it or not I've never used the tranny oil site bolt ( the 6mm bolt by the clutch cover )to monitor my oil when filling up....should I have waited for it to completely stop dripping out of this hole b4 I put the bolt back in?...It didnt start dripping till I was done filling up (obviously) but it seemed like it wasnt gonna stop dripping..I waited prolly a good 5 minutes er so?...didnt know if maybe gravity would keep it dripping out or if I shoulda waited for it to stop....lemme know....thanks.

No.Dont wait.Procedure is you drain it.Put drain and clean filter back in.Remove the screw and fill slowly till you see it start to come out then screw it back in.It ensures a level slightly above or even.Little extra doesnt hurt.
