Quick Question

Its bad if my oil is a bit sparkly, huh?

I just drained about a quart of my oil and looked at it with an LED flashlight and it looks a little sparkly. There's no obvious metal shavings.

"a little" sparkly isn't terrible at almost 150k miles, metal shavings would throw up a red flag. If you aren't already, use a "high mileage" oil...
