Where is my pale of rotten tomato to throw

Check your own oil level weekly. Don't wait for the check engine light to come on. I get on my sisters about this as they just get in the car and drive smh. I check all fluid levels every weekend before I head out to wash my car

Originally Posted By: lubricatosaurus Leave it in place (XG Ultra I mean). You could drain it out and put it back on, but fill the Ultra with fresh oil before you do to avoid a dry start. If you're using a great synthetic oil and changing it at about the manufacturer's recommendations, you're...

I appreciate all of the responses so far. Just curious to see what most folks would say. I think that 69gtx brought up the best point. I never thought about the filter seal after the first use. To break the seal then try to reseal is a valid point. I'm pretty much changing my oil 1/2 times per...

Since I've been away for a few years, things have changed a lot with oil filters as there are so many flavors available now. I haven't really had the need to log in because this site taught me so much stuff AND I have a serious stash of oil and oil filters mainly because of this site (still...

I don't subscribe to the 6 months process at all. I have 7 months on my Val ML blend plus 1 qt of AZ syn make-up oil. I have 3800 miles and most of it is stop/go traffic with occasional highway miles every two weeks. I'm going to change it soon only because I need to eat away at my stash.

What the heck have I missed in the years of my stash!? You guys don't like this filter anymore? I have a ton of PC and Wix filters in my stash. Well I'm not going to throw them away. Will still be put to use as I'm still using oil from the Kmart sale a few years ago.

Will be another failed attempt.

I'll just put citgo gas in my car. Have no problems and will continue

Thanks for all the replies. It's good to hear what you guys do as I was interested. I figured that most left it on as it made more sense. My old car had a "oil catch" so as you are unscrewing, it catches the oil and it drains to the bottom of the car. Best design I've ever seen. My current...

Do you take the time to dump the old oil out the filter and let it drain before re-installing? I never thought to reuse a sny filter or any filter for that matter, but after seeing the last post that went through 3 oci's, I'm re-thinking my point on that subject. I've used the Fram sny filter...

guess i've been away for too long. I didn't know there was a purolator sny filter. Thought P1 Gold "dust" was still at the top of the chain
