Nanni 2.14 service

[Guy666]

I am in the process of servicing my Nanni 2.14. Grateful for advice from anyone who has the same or similar engine.

I have taken the air filter off and it appears to be nothing more than an empty plastic box. I was anticipating that I would be able to take the box apart and clean/replace filter elements but there is no way of opening it. Is there any point in trying to wash it out, or replacing it?

The manual shows an inbuilt oil change hand pump, but there doesn't appear to be one on my engine. Any tips for changing the oil as I can't actually see the hole for the oil dipstick, so getting a thin tube into it is likely to be tricky?

TIA

The air filter housing is supposed to be empty. It serves as much as a sound damper as it does a filter. I clean mine with a rag every couple of years.
I have the oil change pump fitted and it is brilliant for all but the last 1/2L. For that I know of no alternative than to stick a tube down the dipstick hole.

If the oil change pump isn't fitted I expect you'll have a plug on the front face of the sump at bottom left where it would be fitted. If you remove the plug, oil will come out. Whether you can catch it will depend on the space and access in that area.
