    It just so happened CAT Melbourne had an early delivery from CAT Morton yesterday so I was able to buy genuine. Now I can get stuck into it tomorrow. Surprising how much oil the Brakesaver control housing holds when you remove the 3 threaded plugs as well as its own drain plug. I’ve got Fumoso drain valves on the Brakesaver and oil pan which makes it a lot easier.

    I learned that as well about the Brakesaver and those three smaller plugs. I used to only drain the pan and the big brakesaver plug.
