How to add oil on a 200hp Husky?

[brucer]

adding a quart of oil to my 180 husky was a cinch, just open up the right side cowl and it would stay there while you added the oil.
Because of the different design of the 200 cowling, neither side will stay up independently.
Guessing someone has figured out a way using bungee cords or something to be able to hold the right side cowling open without using a hand. Suggestions?

I use one of those wooden paint stir sticks from Lowes to hold up the cowling door. Works like a champ.

I once added oil outside when the wind was blowing the right way ;-). Otherwise, I guess I always use my hand. So helpful I am.

You. need a ball cap and step stool, stand on stool, rest door on head.
