<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV> <P align=left>why not? consider it cheap insurance. i have always heard of oil breaking down just from sitting in an engine too long. i do not know how accurate that is but for $20 bucks i would just do the oil change and have the peace of mind that your are protecting your engine. </P> <P>jason</P> <P>90 gl<BR><BR></P></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>From: Bill Davidson <WDAVIDSON@THEGRID.NET> <DIV></DIV>>Reply-To: Bill Davidson <WDAVIDSON@THEGRID.NET> <DIV></DIV>>To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM <DIV></DIV>>Subject: oil: time or miles? <DIV></DIV>>Date: Sat, 4 May 2002 06:30:07 -0700 <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Okay, other than around the block warm ups, my van has been sitting for two <DIV></DIV>>years... oil was changed to Mobil 1 (100% synthetic) two years ago. I'm <DIV></DIV>>about to head off on a big trip. The miles don't justify changing the oil... <DIV></DIV>>but I seem to remember something about changing the oil after a certain <DIV></DIV>>period of time regardless of miles. Should I change the oil before heading <DIV></DIV>>off on my big trip??? <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Thanks, <DIV></DIV>>Bill <DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: <a href='http://g.msn.com/1HM105401/46'>Click Here</a><br></html>
