    Thanks Greg. Let's hope I do not have to call Underground. Kind of hard to get ahold of them when you are needing information... Will drop the pan and pop the valve covers tonight. Will post what I find.

    Ok might as well do it all and be safe. The journey starts tonight! Will have lots of questions I am sure so thanks to everyone that is helping out. Greg are you saying I should check the bearings first then go to the valve covers or just get the metal out of the pan first?

    Thanks for the info guys. So should I start with taking the valve covers off first or the oil pan?

    Chuck Norris has nothing on me! :nono: Ok here are some pics of the shavings. Think my engine might be in trouble. These were the best pictures I could get. The pieces that are rolled up did look like the shavings before I messed with them.

    Did you teach him that Doug? lol What do you use to cut it open so you do not get pieces of the oil filter housing all over the place? I tried a box knife last night and was not strong enough.

    Got one coming my way Phil. Wish all of this would have happened before winter so I could (if there is a problem) have it fixed for spring. Not my luck.

    Found 2 Metal Shavings in oil. What now?

    Changed the oil this weekend and found 2 small shinny pieces of metal or some kind of material in my oil. Found them on the drain plug. Very thin and shinny. Rubbed them between my fingers to see if they were hard and they rolled up into a ball. What does this sound like? :dunno: Then...

    Hey guys, looking at a old datalog that I did before winter came. I've been wanting to get down and let Doug do his magic but have not had time yet. So I figured I would take a look and see if I can learn some stuff before I get down to him. Logging System: Zeitronix v3.0.5 Split Second...

    New PS2 but old DOT ?

    I bought a set of NEW tires to find out that they were 3 years old too! Was not happy at all spending $1k or more for tires that are this old. Was told there was no problem with them. I thought the lack of traction was the 767rwhp but maybe it was the 3 year old NEW tires... lol Say we will...
