He doesn't think my choice of motor oil would have made much of adifferance but did say he wasn't a fan of extended oil change intervalsBTW.
you have one polite mechanic there, someone at our shop would have called you a dumb *** for waiting that long to change your oil... kiddingjust ask him how the internals looked once he had it open.

NHARINGTON...your right on man. I pulled the spark plug wires...didn't see anything BUT my Mechanic and I just pulled them again and wesaw a small drop of oil on the base of the spark plug wire...we ran aletter opener down there pulled it out and there is indeed oil around the base of the #2 spark plug! The metal tube is sitting a little higher than the others too...we pressed it back down.
