Default Eaton M90 Supercharger Oil

Hello all
Supercharger is sounding like a sewing machine on my 97 XJR. I have read to change the oil. Can't seem to locate the plug on the supercharger, can someone tell me where this is located? Also if oil is not the problem the coupler may be the next issue. It looks like I can take off the snout and avoid removing the entire supercharger, is this the recommended procedure?

You need to read through all the TSBs I uploaded to this site and gave to Gus to put on his site.

Yep, very easy procedure, might want to use a magnetic probe to catch the plug when you unscrew it.

There are tons of "kits" on eBay that include a plastic syringe to suck out the old oil, and the replacement GM or Eaton oil.
