Champion Generator
I just bought a Champion 3500w with remote Generator and I am looking for a magnetic dipstick that has been recommended I can't really find one. I did get a hour meter. I don't want to hear you should...

Still missing the point. The point is that there could be foreign objects in the system that could cause damage when it was built. By flushing the oil after a few minutes of running, the oil picks up and suspends those objects so they will be removed when the oil is changed.
Then refill and run for the 5 hour break in. Break in does contaminate oil as well, but with minute particles from wearing in, not the 'big' stuff from manufacturing.
They yellow gets great reviews so why spend a $1000 more than red or blue!
