Howdy -
I changed the oil today and I checked the post that goes down the center
of the oil filter. I checked the hole in the end and the hole near the top
of the post - both seemed clear but there was a blockage about 2" up from
the bottom. It seemed to be very solid. I tried to push it with a large
paper clip and it wouldn't budge. I tried to blow carb cleaner thru the
bottom hole and only got some seepage from the upper hole. Same using
compressed air - very weak flow.
3 questions - is the post supposed to be hollow with a clear opening
between both holes?
What's the purpose of the holes in the post?
Is this covered in the WSM? Where?
Thanks -
