Scottish Storm Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 After changing the oil I have never, in thirty odd years of working on cars, had the same amount out as I've had to put in to get it to the same level on the dipstick. It didn't matter if it was an MG or a Mazda, a rotary or a piston, bike or car. Maybe NASA should look into it... Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dublet Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 'Cause when you fill up, you fill up to the max but the existing level is rarely at the max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jez.w Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) 'Cause when you fill up, you fill up to the max but the existing level is rarely at the max. This above, plus you can never get all the oil out as there is a film of oil over loads of the internal engine parts which stays. And the oil pump holds some.

Black Knight Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Id just like to say... He set off from the first roundabout and I didn't even bother till the second as could not be arsed with standing on the breaks! I caught him up easily enough from a good distance back but then could not pass because the stupid limiter kept killing the engine! As you say you were riding shotgun...so I was effectively carrying a weight penalty They are my excuses and I'm sticking to em 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
