Even though it has only been 3.5k miles since my last oil change, I did one today, anyway.
After swapping the valve cover gaskets the other day, I just wanted to be sure there was nothing in the oil that had fallen into the valve area when cleaning up the crud around the mating surface on the head for the new gaskets.

Engines always sound so much smoother with fresh oil in them.

My OCIs depend on the vehicle and how it's used.
Only use synthetic and some are 3k and some are 5k.
But my antique cars get an oil change once a year even if they've only got a few hundred miles to a couple thousand on them.

And yeah, the way you abuse your vehicles you need a short OCI.

Kept hearing a buzz while the radio is playing, I think I found out what it was, this flyer from coeur d'alene has probably been shoved in behind the center console where the subwoofer is about a year and half lol beautiful area by the way if you ever go1000006251.jpg

I’m ordered one of those hot staplers that you can use to fix cracks in plastic. The dash in the Tahoe I just bought has cracks in the 2 regular areas- over the instrument cluster and by the airbag. The tool was $20 on Amazon. Considering the fact that the new dashes are about $600 now, I’m not buying one for this rig. I might end up selling it after I fix my 02. The process to pull the dash and repair it is the same as replacing it so I figure I’ll try. I attempted this on my 08 Silverado and it ended up being too brittle. Maybe this will time it will work better. I’ll keep this updated.
