It was only locked in the last 2 hours or so... and the info that was pertinant is still there? So what's the big deal? :wink:

Glad that's all it was. I guess your mixture was waaaay off then for it to cause that.

a simple thank you for the people who tried to help and to the others that tried to keep the "misinformation" where it belongs would be nice.

One thing stated in that other topic was a suggestion for you to use 20W-50. I hope you aren't thinking of doing that. Because if you are, you won't be driving your car much. 20W-50 and -14ºC don't work together.

Well Bruce, you are right about that.... I said that... but living in S Texas I did not consider what climate the guy may have been in.. Since it has been above 70 here for a week, I sometimes forget that other people have to endure a much colder range of temps.
