Sump Studs v Bolts

[stuartu]

Had the highly accomplished mechanic who had a momentary lapse had the mesh filter in place….

Poor fool had made an extended filler neck for the mag engine, with no cylindrical filter

My sympathies. Having had a near miss with a similar arrangement myself, I have taken to inserting a perforated zinc “baffle” in the filler orifice. This rather slows the process of adding oil to the engine so, of course, I hook the filter out thus negating some of its advantages. Still, fitting it made me feel better. I suppose one could just replace the filler cap……
