Post your latest oil change

2 years ago 🤣🤣


Oil being poured in looks like pride of a Venezuela heavy sour 🤣🤣🤣

Please tell me you are mailing me more used filters. I’m bored.
Just the BG EPR was 2 years ago. The oil/HPL/EC30 was from newest to oldest. "previous OCI was same Delo/HPL. Prior to that was PP Euro-L and HPL, M1 with EC30, PP with EC30"

I will probably have one to send after Pilot does a VA trip next week. I had one making a mess so I cut like 5 with pictures. I'm waiting for filter media to wick out to paper towels so I can finish them.

2 cars are now in VA so not sure what I'm doing with changes on them. Jeep is still 1000 miles off before next change and only does around town.

Fill port after fourth round of VRP:



That bolt head sure looks cleaner now!
Anything of note after running it for 4 OCI's?

Not really. The engine ran very well before VRP and did not use any oil. Now it's the same.

However, the entire valve area on the front bank was very dark last year when I adjusted the valves. Now the area under the fill port seems to have less varnish, so perhaps this extends across the entire area (?) It's too bad the cover isn't easier to remove, to evaluate things like this!
