Definitely add oil to the crankcase, I would think, because if it has run short of oil, it could be cycling on the oil pressure switch, and if you bypass that, you could be lunching the engine from lack of oil pressure. Then after it's running and you stop it, you can change it when it's hot provided it makes AC power and little oil smoke, no bad noises, and it seems worth the investment of the clean oil. People use a coozie to put around the filter to keep the cooling air inside the sheet metal, if the original gasket is missing which it often is. A coozie is one of those closed cell foam surrounds for a cold drink. Thanks I think to Matt Colie for that idea.

Best,
