I want the rubber cup not to act as a water catchment when down. I want easy access to the wires. My opinion is they were trying to get it into the air flow.(fan and forward motion)and back then before they new how to completely fill, it made the oil stay near where they wanted it to stay. Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it. - William Penn
