Hi everyone,

I'm about to do my first full fluids change on my 2004 Screamin Eagle Deuce (new to me).

I don't have the service manual or anything, so could anyone please tell me what fluids I need to get for engine/transmission/primary. Basically I need to know what brand/viscosity to get (and an oil filter too obviously), and how much of each to use.

Thanks in advance!

It  came with Syn3 HD oil to begin with and there is some logic having the same in all three holes.
(you never have the wrong oil)

I am not going to start another "what is the best" oil thread. Done a thousand times

I like running red oil in transmission Shock proof and a good synthetic in the engine. I like the different colors only because if there is a leak, I know where it is coming from.

Thanks for the info.  Not looking for a discussion on what oil is best, I understand that's personal preference.  Just need to know what kind of oil to run in each area, and how much to use.

I did see that my local dealer is offering a full service for $89, which I might have them do first off as it seems just getting the oil and filter alone is going to run me $50.  Then I can get the information I need from them in order to do it myself next time.

Still if anyone can tell me what, specifically, they run in the engine/trans/primary and how much to put in each one (assuming I'm replacing oil filter too) that would be very helpful

1 quart in tranny, ck dipstick
1 quart in primary or fill to bottom of clutch basket
3 quarts in oil tank then run and check. dont overfill
to avoid another oil thread just put the harley syn in in all three

This is exactly what I needed.  Thank you!

Go to the HD website. With your VIN in had you'll be able to access an online owner's manual and recommended service intervals.
