Hi everyone,
A question about my oil fill tube. On my A4 there is no fill tube on the front of the block. There is a tube on the rg cover plate, is this the filler? I have not seen any pictures of a block like this. Would this be an early block or late? Could this be a rare factory hi performance casting? My head seems to be late, it has double act therm not Dole. The tube on rg plate has a 1" rubber plug with a thru bolt, washer and nut to seal the tube. If this is the filler should it be sealed shut or have a vented oil cap? Also does anybody have the MMI oil change kit installed? How is it closed off and what pump do you use? The pick up tube seems to have greater diam for pickup than a small tube down the dipstick tube. It's time for an oil change as a funny thing happend on the way to the Island this weekend, but I will save that for another post, first things first. Your opinions and comments are always welcomed, thanks for letting me share, my name is Rob and I AM a sailaholic.
