I just bought a 610, and after it sat for a few days the oil had a gas smell to it. I put a shut off valve on the fuel line to stop that problem. Now I would like to change the oil. The problem is, I can't find the drain plug! In the manual it clearly shows it being about 4" to the right, and lower than the lines going to the oil filter. I can see the "V" shape in the oil pan where the manual shows the plug, but mine does not have one there. I thought maybe someone put the oil pan on backwards, but after feeling around on the other side of the (Wisconsin) engine, I was not able to find anything. I took one line off of the oil filter hoping to drain it that way, but the stream was smaller than a pencil lead. I tried taking the entire plate off where the filter lines go into the engine, but one bolt is so close to a line, I gave up and waited for the manual to show up in the mail. Hopefully I'm being blind/stupid. Anyone know where I should look?
