In Reply to: No Cub Oil Pressure! posted by Don Mountain on April 28, 2009 at 17:31:21:

On startup this spring, I backed it out of the barn and saw no oil pressure on the gauge, so I shut if off. I have never had this problem before. I checked the oil as it was changed at the end of last year, and is up to the full line. It also had a new filter with only a few hours on the oil and filter.

Can I take the top off the oil filter and fill it up from there? I don"t see any plugs or any way to get into the oil gallery?
