Hello All,
I'm glad I found these forums, they are a huge help. We have a CAT345, but never have changed the engine oil as of yet. The unit was purchased from Richie Brothers Aution Site and it looks like the unit might have been sitting for awhile. The filter are all dated about a year ago and also have the hour mileage wrote on them.
I know you can do a test kit to check the oil, but was thinking I will just change it completely so I know it has been done.
Anything I need to know about changing the oil besides just draining it, changing the filters, replacing the filters and oil (besides getting all dirty!)?
Thanks,
Rob in AZ
