Posted By: C-Bass Subject: Changing your oil, secret method!!! Date Posted: December-11-2008 at 5:34pm I threw this up in the Engine Repair area, but thought it was worth putting in here as well. Having trouble getting out all the old oil from the engine???....just add water! http://www.mustangforums.com/forum/5-0l-general-discussion/368307-im-done-with-this-car.html - Oil Change Unbelievable... ------------- Craig 67 SN 73 SN http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=6103" rel="nofollow - 99 Sport 85SN Replies: Posted By: 75 Tique Date Posted: December-11-2008 at 6:23pm dopey mustang owner wrote: My car was idling like crap the other day so I figured since I just got it, it may have been awhile since anyone changed the oil out. I decided to go ahead and change the oil. I used Mobile 1 synthentic oil like I was reccomended on here. Anyways, I drain out the oil and noticed it was extremely dark and even after 10 minutes of draining, it was still coming out. I decided to go ahead and flush it to make sure all the bad stuff got out. I hooked up the hose, ran water through the engine, started it up and was waiting for the water to come out clean (The engine never went above idle so I was told this would be ok). Anyways, About 3 minutes into this, then engine starts shaking and shuts off. I figured it was all cleaned out so I plugged it up, added the oil and figured I was ready to go. WRONG! The car won't freaking start now. This car has been nothing but trouble for me, I think I am done with it. Thats hugely amusing. I'm pretty limited in my mechanic skills, but I'm pretty confident that I would never have pulled that one. He's done with that car....as tho its a lemon that came with the problems. I think 79 should respond to his post...just to help him out, you understand. ------------- _____________ “So, how was your weekend?” “Well, let me see…sun burn, stiff neck, screwed up back, assorted aches and pains….yup, my weekend was great, thanks for asking.” Posted By: 05 210 Date Posted: December-11-2008 at 6:43pm Imagine the fun Chris could have had with that guy.

He then drove the car to his mothers...over an hour away. It cleaned the engine alright... his new replacement engine was just sparkling!! ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1117&sort=&pagenum=6" rel="nofollow - 64 American Skier 62 Classic.. 73 Ski Nautique
