Just pump the oil out through there until it BEGINS to spit air then refill with proper weight oil. Don't leave it running with low oil in the tank or you will ruin your pump and don't try to drive it.Otherwise on my 160 they say to undo a hose clamp on the reservoir but that would make a huge mess.If the oil was really heavy you may have to operate all functions some then repeat the pump out as the tank is likely only 50% of the system. You can save the oil you pump out as it should still be clean. Perhaps remove the filter again and check for filings,  as a hint that something may have failed, but I'm betting on the it being just oil thickness at this point.Ken</blockquote>
