h67st Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 I've never filled one of these caps before...it says to fill it up to the bead. I assume you fill the entire bottom cup? Once you get it up to the bead it starts to trickle over into the center area. It takes like 2 quarts to fill the whole thing!

mowerman Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 You only need a little bit of the bottom just an inch or so. Good luck bud Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73079-oil-bath-air-cleaner/#findComment-535379 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Popular Post Geoff Weeks Posted July 22, 2023 Solution Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2023 Do as it says, fill to bead, the bottom will be full also. If you don't have enough oil in it, it doesn't clean the air. Oil Bath filters restriction remains constant over the service interval. They clean better then a "new" paper filter, but slightly less than a used paper filter that has some time on it. As long as they are serviced at regular intervals they last a life time. Some of the buses I worked on had oil baths the size of a waste basket and took more than a gal of oil. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73079-oil-bath-air-cleaner/#findComment-535400 Share on other sites More sharing options...
