Oil weight question and cold weather
Newps wrote:
Why would you want to catch the condensation and then keep it trapped at the top of your engine? How about don't open the dipstick and let the air circulate out of the engine normally thru the breather? This way any water will drip on the floor. The cloth absorbs the condensation, where it then evaporates into the air, rather than drips back into the oil. I suppose pulling the cap without the cloth would work, too, but there's something about leaving the engine exposed and vulnerable to creepy crawlies and such that suggests (to me, anyhow) keeping the oil spout covered. -- Peter ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |
