Someone here works at a car place in maple grove, right?
 
I built a 2.4 for my car awhile ago and its finally to the point where my dad has been putting miles on the car while i've been away at school. Its due for a 500 mile oil change, but i'd like a mitsu familiar person to due the oil change.

No you cant drive it around, not like my ex-army dad will let anyone do anything but drive it 5 feet from a parking spot and onto a lift anyway.

With that being said, anyone?

Yea he knows Dan and Shane pretty well now, they've cleaned up a lot of bullshit on the car. But im not going to trouble them with an oil change. They arent a maintenance shop after all.

I think you're referring to the Maple Grove Goodyear on CR-30/94. Mafia Pete works there, check their section on the board and shoot him a PM.

I don't know how soon you need this done, but once my leg heals I'd do it for ya if you trusted me. I'd of course have your dad there watching me every second making sure I'm not messing around with anything I shouldn't be.

I would do it for probably just the price of gas and maybe ten bucks depending on how far I have to drive. But you are looking at atleast a month before I could make that happen for you.

Anyways good luck!

P.S. I changed my oil 3 times last summer never had a problem... I know not to wrench it on super tight with an oil wrench, know that you use a 1g filter, and also know to make sure that dang seal from the previous filter is removed...

lol isnt that usually attached to the filter?

Re: Someone here works at a car place in maple grove, right?
 
not with some brands. if they arent lubed when they are put on, for one the filter is a bitch to get off, and the gasket sometimes gets stuck.

dont double gasket, kids. you will blow oil everywhere making a horrific mess. more bleeding than swifty anus after the bash swifty thread.

DSM_421 03-13-2008 03:33 PM

Re: Someone here works at a car place in maple grove, right?
 
It is a seal in my book, after all it seals the oil in the filter... I guess you can consider it a gasket if you want.

But yea you always want to use some old oil or even new oil to lube the filter if it doesn't come pre-lubed. The Napa Wix filters do not come pre-lubed... But the Mitsubishi filters do.

What does a head "gasket" do... what does a oil pan "gasket" do... it seals fluids from getting out.

Dont think they call them "seal."

Your "book" is for retards.
