I could probably take a look at it. What is the car doing or not doing that isn't normal?

I won't be home by 4:15p. I'll look for your call around 7p. If you get our voice mail, just leave a message with a number and I'll call you back. Best, SJ _________________ Racing is life.

Okay, a couple quick questions: 1. What type and weight of oil are you using? 2. Last changed? 3. Type of oil filter? 4. Last changed? You haven't added any snake oil in there have you?

Snake Oil generic term for the wall of crap you can buy at your local auto parts store that supposed to do everything and anything to engine, no matter what's wrong with it. blazing red dragon wrote: and oil filter was at the same time it's fram extra guard or something not sure. oil and filter have less then 25 miles on it. FRAM?!  I'd highgly recommend you only use OEM or Mobil 1 filters and stay away from FRAM. I hope you used a crush ring as well? Best, SJ _________________ Racing is life.

It's an every now and again thing, considering the number of frams out there, but definitely not something I want on my engine. Good luck with the strange noise. I would grab a sample of the oil and ship it off to blackstone, or whatever. that will tell you what your running... Toby
