Two items: 1. What are some possible causes for the crankcase to fill with petrol? 2. How does one coerce an oil filter off its post? I have a top mounted, spin on (so far, not spin off) Havoline oil

Are your float needles in need of replacement (or your float(s)), or does your float level need adjusted? As far as how it gets by the pistons, I don't know. I assume your rings may be bad if it happ

I have on occasion had to resort to driving a screwdriver through the filter. It gives a lot of leverage on a stuck filter. Remember to drive it thru the entire filter and out the other side, prefera

If all else fails and you don't mind some spilled oil. Drive a long pike (screwdriver) through the filter and use it for leverage. Larry Macy 78 Midget

If all else fails punch a screw driver through the filter and twist the filter off. In really tough situations you may have to rip the cover off the filter and go at the part that screws on to the en
