    under the D2--

    had to do my first oil change on the new green machine,,
    everything nice and oil free!!!
    (makes a change :roll: )

    just in front of the filter is a small plastic splash guard, which I took off to allow easier filter removal,,

    when it came time to replace the guard I did the centre self tappers up first then looked at the sides---

    hmmm, not a great fit, seems to be a big lip at the ends,,
    no wonder one of the end screws was missing,,
    but if I turn the guard upside down--
    the nice washer indents will be raised bulges????

    am I missing something here?

    <span style="color:blue">dunno...you just confused me......

    bring it round and i will look at for you if you like.....

    or just take a couple of pics.....but with those things its best not to tighten
    anything till all screws are in place.....


    i used to make a cut out in them under the oil filter....
    this allowed the oil filter to be changed without having to remove the tray....
    and without making a mess all over the tray......

    then the boss found out and got a bit upset with me..... ops: </span>

    it took more effort to find the saw and cut the hole than to remove a few screws...
    the time saved was on the next service......</span>
