Kubota stock oil filter.its very heavy duty in construction and the price was reasonable.

I assume that in diesal engines a good run down the highway would evaporate the fuel from the oil.Maybe take more time than a gas engine because gas is more volatile.Is that a fast idle or regular idle?

If idle is to be avoided what is high idle rpm range?

The point is some people like some laws ( gun laws for example) and hate others ( laws pertaining to immigration).Why allow some of the laws to be not enforced then complain that the laws we like are enforced.

Well played my friend.

Lots of freedom in rural Kansas.
