Got stuck into the oil and filter changes this afternoon, and as usual spilt the engine oil in the bilge. The filter on this Yanmar engine is mounted horizontally and no matter what precautions one takes it is inevitable that oil ends up under the engine.
I found a US co. that makes a remote mount for filters and I think this might be the go, so the filter can be upright and will then hold all the oil in it as its unscrewed.
Its HERE, anyone any comments about this idea ?
In any event it's all done, engine, gearbox, genset, watermaker....
