Message	This post is in response to my post yesterday, found www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx? ] forum=general&msg_id=1698870">here Well I decided to not take the mechanics word for it and checked the oil level myself and discovered that they not only didn't drain the old oil, but added 5 quarts instead of 3 5/8 for a total of 8 5/8 quarts of oil!!! So I drained it, rechanged the oil myself, and voila, it runs like a champ again. Sorry for the histerical post yesterday, I was a little on-edge. Good news is that my car is running fine now! I'll never take it anywhere for any work ever again :) -James "...Flat out beautiful... like a Porsche whose mother ran off with a Ferrari" - YugoBernies Profile BernardBilski: ive pulled all kinds of shit plugs out ND4SPD56: lol, sig quote
