Default How What Question

Friend of mine inadvertently topped off transfer case with gear oil about a pint he says. I advised him it needs to be flushed out immediately. He has driven about 25 miles this way. Anyone know of this ever happening & results or a fix other than flushing it out. Thanks for any help

What is it in cause some t-cases use gear dope. Doubt it'd hurt a newer jeep case but prolly wouldn't be good for it either due to the thickness.

X2 on xjmarc's question. You never stated what vehicle or t-case your friend has.

If it is an NP 231, then Serious is right.
