Also, I assume the milky valve cover was from the dead cylinder side? Goo is most likely from condensation buildup due to lack of heat from combustion.

Have you changed the oil yet? Any idea on the maintenance history, if any? Wondering if the rings are loaded up from lack of oil changes.

API SE or SF 10w-30 or 10w-40 depending on climate.

Possible, based on 325k ring seal.

Most likely was the 2bbl Rochester Varajet carb.

Pi-hole v6 has had some...bumps. Seems they have mostly gotten the kinks worked out but there are still some lingering issues. For the most part it continues to preform its duties just fine, for me at least. In my case, I have Cloudflare Tunnel handling the DoH function setup on the same box as...

Is this a hypothetical or are you seriously considering this?

Not sure where you are getting your info about the Equinox and the 3.6 but its wrong. No Equinox ever had a LLT 3.6. The LFX 3.6 started with the 2013MY and ran through the 2017MY. The 2010-2012MY's had a LF1/LFW 3.0 V6 option.

I have had 2x WD Red Pro 4TB drives running RAID1 in my NAS for the last two years with no issues.

I have one of these "hub shockers" and they work fantastic for popping the wheel bearing hub assembly off the steering knuckle.

You know you've spent too much time on here when you recognize a wrong part number like muscle memory 🤣

Shouldn't that be the 84502?

I've always dumped my leftover mixed 2 cycle gas into one of the vehicles. It will be fine, the concentration will be very weak once mixed with whats in your vehicles tank. Just think of it as a fuel pump lube.

Looks like the current SAE 10W is mostly a hydraulic oil now? For my case, it may have been 10w, been too long now. Regardless, it was a automotive mono 10 grade that was off the shelf at the time.

As the wise old proverb states, "If it leaks oil, it has oil". I has similar results with Castrol GTX HM synthblend resolving a RMS leak on my 98.

My dad and I used SAE10 monograde Resolute brand oil from Fleet Farm as a flush oil after we did the intake gaskets on my '98 K1500. Previous gaskets leaked and I had oil/coolant snot a plenty internally. I don't remember if we used anything else with it but we used the 10 after getting it back...

Switch to VRP and send it.

From what it looks like online, its entirely normal for the 22RE to have low oil pressure at hot idle. Like 5 psi low. Apparently the minimum spec is 4.3 psi. Also remember, the engine is spending most of its runtime well above idle. For the long haul, I agree and would run a 40 weight. But...
