Swapped the oil filter. The old one came off much more easily than the prior one. The first one (from the factory) I only ran an hour or so but the gasket on it was impossible to stop leaking, so I switched it for a Fram. That one was very hard to get back off. Then I went with a Purolator. That was the one I just pulled off. It sealed nice and came back off nice. The one that just went on is a Purolator "premium" of some kind. I figured for $2 more, I'll give it a try. Put the left side baffle back in place. Refilled the oil. Now it's ready for a test run of all the things that have been opened up over the past week.
