    Yep, double the speed of oil changes. I’m all for that to get back on Netflix ASAP.

    No oil in the pan solves all issue with speed.

    This tread is worth setting up for email notifications.

    When is the last time you saw anyone checking their oil as they filled up? I know I do and often feel like the Lone Ranger.

    It not my mask, but it has a lot to do with the hood prop. Sometimes my sidekick does call me Kemosahbee.

    I never check my oil as I’m filling up at a gas station because there an hour away, the dip stick reading would be all jacked up. I check my oil every other day in my garage before start up.

    You are not alone....
    I do it sometimes. Depending on how long I have to wait...
    The ground is more or less level... And it sits for at least 3 minutes...
