This one has the 15HP, OHV GN410 engine-- and has this note
"Automotive Style Oil Filter Keeps oil clean - prolonging engine
life. "

Is the page wrong? The model number you're talking about? Something
else?


Whoops. Sent that one off too quickly.

The actual issue is there are really two versions of the GN-410 - one
of which is a 13HP one with no filter, and a 15HP one with a filter. Both
are used on that model of genset. It's the same engine, basically,
except the lower rated one doesn't include the filter, while the
15HP one does. The other notable difference is that the 13HP version
costs about $300 less.

But Mr. Spastic-Fingers hasn't quite figured that out yet. ;-)
