Going thru the books, I noticed it'd been 3100 miles and six months since the last oil change(my birthday actually) Pulled the stick, and noticed it was a bit low (had never budged before) When I pulled the PCV it way dripping with oil, and didn't rattle at all. The tube to the intake was nice and wet too. Then I remembered that last time, our ghetto-*** parts store didn't have one, and since it was rattling just fine, I stuck the old one back in. I check fluids at least once a week, so there was no real danger (I don't drive very far) Had I been the average driver (doing hundreds of miles a week and paying no attention) this could have easily cost me an engine in very short order. CHANGE THE TWO DOLLAR PCV EVERY TIME YOU CHANGE THE OIL! There, i yelled it at you all! Love, wayne.
