Is this Alt.Car.Repair? The subject at least deserved an OT marking.
Too subtle, I guess.

One COULD say that many machines involved in home repair have oil-changing
issues: lawnmowers, edgers, chainsaws, personal vibrators, and so on.

But you raise a good point, and I'm sorry. I started this thread. What
happened was I thought this was of interest to many folks. I don't
subscribe
to alt.car.repair and this group seemed to be the closest, plus this group
is filled with experts, experience, and elan.

With a couple of obvious exceptions.

No apology necessary. I was trying a little dry humor to point out that
you're coming perilously close to "I Hate America" HomeGuy in starting OT
posts. Yours, of course, are a lot less inciteful (mostly g) and more
insightful. Apparently it was interesting enough to enough people that it
generated a fair number of responses although I don't think any agreement
was reached on exactly when to change oil other than - "it depends."

FWIW, your OT posts are always more interesting than crap about bleeding
speakers, Craftsmen penises and all the other drivel people feel compelled
to respond to.
