Genset oil fill

[Bill0828]

The oil fill tube on the generator (CAT/Gentech)of my '04 KountryStar is in a difficult spot to reach. It's on the upper right (driver's)portion of the genset box but right below a main fuse box as well as wiring harness. Absolutely no room for proper access for filling or topping off the oil without making a bit of a mess..even with a flexable funnel tube. The short fill neck appears to be 3/4 or 5/8 cast but I can't tell if its screwes on at the genset casing or continues into the housing itself. I'd like to create an extension for ease of access. The genset is in a fixed position and very tight access all around. Options are few in those tight quarters. Anyone out there with a Newmar, SOB and similar problem and a good solution?

Bill, this should do it for you. If the plastic tubing is not long enough, or you need to put a plastic right angle fitting on the end of the tubing, you can buy the tubing and the plastic fittings at Home Depot, Lowes, and Ace hardware stores.
