I just changed my motor oil at 100km.   A bit early but o well.  Says there is suppose to be some kind of filter?  But i don't see it on either end...

[wordslinger]

..the only filter on the A50 is a screen that drops down from where you remove the hex-plug....

..it has a rubber seal on top of it...when you remove the drain plug, the screen comes out of the crankcase next....

[zombie]

You'll be just fine. I watched Water World last nite!

[shubonker]

Crap... i didn't notice any kind of screen.  Is it flat?  Also, would i be ok without it?

[wordslinger]

...welllll.... it needs to be there....

..chances are, that it stuck to the crankcase....and it's still there...

..you got a copy of the service manual, shubonker??

[shubonker]

Yep.  I'll go fish in the bucket that i drained everything in, and see if its in there.  If not, i'll just assume its in the crankcase.  *crosses fingers*

[wordslinger]

...if you didn't see it fall out when you were draining your oil, it's most likely still up in there...
