Interesting observation this week end while changing oil in my generator. The entire time I have owned this Bus the starting procedure for the generator has always been the same. It never starts on the first try, as if a sensor is telling it not to start. It always starts on the second attempt.
I usually change oil after I let the generator run to get up to operating temp. That way the oil is warm and seems like more oil is removed. This time I changed oil without starting it because the Bus was inside in A.C. and I didn't want to pull it out and sweat. When I removed the oil filter it was empty. No oil ran out. I suspect the napa cross over # 1068 oil filter is not designed to operate in a sideways installation. Perhaps the original oil filter supplied be Power Tech had a safety valve that stopped oil from draining out while on its side.
Boy was I surprised when I removed the oil filter with a rag under it to catch the oil and none came out !
