Shaun! you're not supposed to let it cool down, it's much better to drain the oil while it's hot because it's lighter, and that means you get more of the oil and dirt out because hot oil circulates better than colder one.

I drain my oil after running the car for about 10 minutes of I'm changing the oil from stop, if not I let it cool down for 5 minutes while I get my stuff ready and then just do it...

Yeah.. it is kinda expensive.. $35 after taxes for oil change. What I like is that you don't have to make appointments.. most places I know that charge $25 you have to come in and wait till they're done with other cars.. I got no time for that.

buddy thats how much it cost me jus for oil and filter

synthetic baby - nothing but the best

oil change should only take 5 minutes, not even.
the only thing that slows you down, is waiting for it to drain out.

oil can be dumped at transfer stations as hazardous waste, or if you're nice, at oil changing places or even canadian tire.
don't be an ass and drain down the sewer =(


i think being "boro" these days, is cool and trendy.
who the fack wants to be ghetto? it doesn't make sense. why are you proud to call yourself boro? all it means is your too damn poor or too damn cheap to fix something the proper way.

Ren, since you went to COSTCO, did they still have the Optima Batteries on the shelf?

[REN69]

No.. they only carry Kirkland Batteries.. which is made by JCI who also makes Optimas (they bought them out).
