Oil Fill Cap???

[Drentzii]

I bought a 1998 Dutch Star 3883 DP last July. Then had Camping World perform Oil/Filter service on Engine and Generator. So I have not topped off the Oil or Tranny fluids yet this season. Heading to SC from Ohio this weekend and may need to top off before I depart. I have several questions regards the attached picture.

Questions regarding pic:
1. The left cap is marked Trans, is this the transmission fluid fill or just the dipstick?
a. If not the fill where would that be located?

2. The center is marked Engine Oil, is this the Engine Oil fill or just the dipstick?

3. The right cap was replaced by Camping World after doing the Oil/Filter service (they ran over the original). Is this the Oil Fill cap?
a. If not, what is it?

Thanks in advance for answering these questions.

1/ Transmission dipstick/fill. Transmission fluid level can be (should be) checked
From the shift pad. See your operators manual for instructions.

2/. Engine oil level dipstick. If the oil level is between Full and Add, suggest leaving it alone. Trying to keep the level at Full will result in more than necessary oil consumption.

3/. Could be the oil fill tube. Follow the tube. If it is the full tube it will go into the engine at some point. Do you have a side or rear radiator?

Dennis45, thanks for the feedback. To answer your question it has a side radiator. There is a coolant reservoir not shown that is just above and to the left of the dipsticks. So that would be a convenient place to add coolant should it reach the "Min" level.

I will follow the tube and see where it lands. Should have done that before posting.

Another detail about the cap is that it tightens a seal as you turn the knob clockwise.

Thanks again for u=your response.
