I do know our car consumes a good amount of oil if driven hard... |

How much is a good amount? I track my car about once a month and really don't burn any oil at all. probably less than a 1/4 of a quart per 5,000 miles.

No, actually it was done in a one car garage in San Antonio Texas in August averaging about 105 degrees on a cement floor with your basic mechanics tool set and a couple screwdrivers starting at 0400 (because it was only about 80) and well I think I can make it a bit better as the years roll on..... I actually drank about a case of the wife's bottled water through the ordeal... Probably lost a few pounds as well but hey, it was a great experience and I look forward to fixing the spare motor in the next couple of months....

Where did you buy the engine from?
Lesson here is that it's worth paying a premium to buy a motor from a reputable dismantler. |

San Antonio, Texas, August, during the heat wave of 20XX, at least 112 degrees F. One car, unventilated garage with uncured, rough concrete floor. Wrenches were from K-Mart, with pieces missing; screwdrivers from Target, with broken handles. Water was "gray" water, the wife had bottled up to use to water the plants. There, that ought to keep your story moving along ....... humfrz |

I went to subaru dealer for my throwout bearing replacement after touges for two days + 300 mile drive home. They told me there was no oil on my dip stick............................... I even did highway pull on the way home cuz my friend...../facepalm Jesus. Best way to avoid this is actually just change oil before going to track/event, I got lazy that one time & it's sorta of a close call... |
