    Yellow under oil cap?

    Thanks for the quick replies! This truck is parked in a cramped 1 car garage, and with this weird winter we've had i have been in the a few nights were everything was drenched in water from moisture in the air. so im guessing the inside of my motor was looking similar those nights?

    Syn blend ok in my JD?

    oops! i probally should have added that, 10w30. Regardless i will be changing the oil and filter often so if there really isnt much advantage i could just stick with valvoline(or rotella?) sae 30.

    Oversized filter for 4.7 tundra?

    My 2006 Toyota Tundra with a 4.7 takes a M1-102. Does anyone use a larger filter on this motor? The M1-102 just seems so small. Ive been thinking about running a m1-209(or MC fl-400s), anyone see a problem with this?
