I think he is right. My hemi ticks at low rpm when the engine is cold, exactly when cam lubrication is at it's lowest.

Replaced original Denso TTs in my 4 cylinder Camry at 112k. 2 of them were missing the top tip. NGK Laser Iridiums went in. 35k is not many miles for an Iridium plug.

My grandfather had a 1981 Pontiac Bonneville with 26k on it when he gave it to me in 2002. Don't think he ever changed the oil. He said changing the oil was "just wasting it". The rest of the car was also totally unmaintained.

Hook it up to a running car for 10min

No point in contacting the shop, they definitely don't care. When working at a Meineke as a teen, just about every car that ever came into the shop, the owner was told it needed brakes. Your average customer thinks, "omg my brakes are bad, am I gonna die?" They made a lot of money like that.

"with that kind of oil burn, you best be saving for a new cat and new oxygen sensors" i drove a 99 corolla from 140k mi to 240k burning 1qt per 1000-1200mi and never had an issue with the cat or O2 sensors. still changed the oil and filter every 10k. it ran exactly the same from the day i...

Linctex - would you rather live next to a fast food restaurant with a drive thru or in one of those villages that they are cutting the barrels open and dumping them onto the ground and into the rivers that are a food source for the people? also most fast food restaurants dining rooms close...

Im not sure if most know what it means anymore. Some may see it as a sign of aggression.

i had a custom built 700hp big block in a boat. the engine builder said at least 140 but even better 160 on the oil before hammering it. the water never ran hotter than 110 since there was no thermostat.

I am the orig owner. This is the longest oci i have ever went. Usually stay in the 5k-6k range. The car is also garage kept so i doubt there is corrosion from moisture. Engine is literally spotless inside. Although it has developed a slight lifter tick when cold sometimes, within the last few...

I'm guessing the fuel dilution may be because this oci was over 2 winters and 1 summer.

Should I listen to blackstone and go 10k or try 7k next oci? I am using the same oil again. It's castrol edge european formula, black bottle.
