Yikes.

Don't take the bolt below the oil filter out -- that's known to be very fragile, and it just drains into the sump. Crack that puppy and you're looking at new cases and LOTS of labor to swap them in.

Ah. Then I stand corrected. I personally have never had an issue, but there are many who have more experience than I with DRZ's.

Defer to Al on this advice in the name of safety. I will too. Thanks Al!
