[DeTomaso] ZF

[Tomas Gunnarsson]

A couple of corrections here: Fendt is a German manufacturer, not Swedish. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fendt
I have not mounted a remote reservoir, the only "exotic" part of my trans is the standpipe with dipstick. My car is not a pushbutton, it's #2004. I do have a -1 trans though!
