filling oil
has anyoe come up with a clean way to add oil to their g series (in my case 83 sc) without spilling all over my clean engine...really is a pita location for the filler. I ve tried a couple of flexible metal fillers but still got messy because the filler can slip and voila..mess on floor or worse, the engine bay
i am sure there are some creative methods out there? |

17" Total, fits securely in tank opening, holds 1 Qt Oil bottle. It's one piece so there's no chance of separating while filling. During oil changes I Zip Tie it to the Lid Hinge so you can dump a bottle in and walk away. I think this may be the same one https://www.jmesales.com/national-spencer-poly-flex-spout/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMInc7S46_86AIVg56fCh1XMApEEAkYAyA BEgIKovD_BwE . ![]()

Dipstick.
Also, with engine warmed up, just fill to between the marks on the dipstick.
