Statpower -NOW OIL STORAGE?

[richard waters]

Dave,
I kind of walked into the middle of this thread. So I might
ask something that you already gave the answer to.

It sounds like you have a neat way to store 12 qts of oil
inside the engine compartment.

That way you can add oil conveniently during pit stops?

As far as my setup, I have to go to the access panel behind
the fridge and get oil when I need it. I don't have to go inside
the coach, but I still have to unlock that panel to get oil.

What about the starting battery. Do you store the oil where most
of us have a battery?

I still have the old fridge that does not run on propane.

I am planning on upgrading to a 3-way this spring. That's
why I was interested in alternate storage locations for my
oil supply.
