[Diesel-RVs] Re: Cumins C8.3 300 DIY oil change

Fred and George, thanks for the confirming info. I feel much more
competent now.

I have considered the Fumoto Valve, but always forget about it until
the next six month oil change. Will order one today.

One of the reasons my oil changes cost too much at the service shops is
they were charging me for more oil than the engine apparently holds.
Not a big deal, but still more money in my pocket.
