Subject:learned a new trick
From:westydriver
Date:Fri, 8 Nov 2002 10:43:52 -0700

was  working in the yard this morning and noted a dreaded new puddle of
oil under my 82 westy.
thanks to the subject coming up so often on these lists i just opened
up my oil check door and "look  ma, no oil fill tube".. it had fallen
off but was still down in there.
couldnt figure out how to  get  my hands down in there to  get at that
bolt  to put it back on and then suddenly realized that one of my  long
1/4" extensions would slip in from behind the alternator and went
straight to the bolt.  didnt need any swivel sockets or universals to
get at it from that angle.

wonder if that "hole" was  intentional?
