I don't change my oil to save a little money. I change it to be in touch
with what is going on with my engine, and to have it done right, which
saves big money as they say around here.

If you look into the oil drain pan you can see�or not see�evidence of the
awful things that can happen to an engine. "Reading the tea leaves" is as
much an informational experience as is a compression test or reading codes
on a scangauge..
