I'll drive it someday
I changed the oil on my DD today. I pretty much always use Mobil 1 and today was no different. On the 5 quart jugs, there is a thin, plastic seal which I normally push my finger through and pull out. Today, it tore in half and folded inward so I couldn't easily get at it. About half way through, one half folded out and the other half went down the filler neck.
I probably would have just drained out the $28 worth of oil but while emptying out the reservoir, what shold come out but another seal. I usually change oil at approximately 5 k miles so that seal was obviously in there for a while with no I'll effects.
What says Vettemod?
The motor is a 4.3 liter Lexus V8 if that makes any difference in the opinions.
