Good Morning everyone.

It is 12:15am Sunday January 20th and it is -18.8 degrees outside

I had to wait up to see if Michael's car started at work.He just walked through the door and said it started but when he walked away it stalled and a guy at his work place had to give him a jump.The peckerhead don't check his oil for a month and when he does it is 3 quarts of oil low.I told him to buy 5w30 but he buys 10w30.
I found out when i bought that Cavalier that it won't start very good with 10w30 in it at winter time.It wouldn't start when i worked at Portage Wi. and i had a hell of a time getting it started and i called my Uncle Bill and he told me to put 5w30 in and it started like it was summer time.I couldn't believe that would make such a big difference.But it does.That was at 10,000 miles and we have 334,000 miles on it now.

The only thing i have changed on that motor was the timing chain and the spark plug blew out of the head one too many times and i had to take the head off my parts car i bought and put it on Tracie's car.It runs so smooth you wouldn't know it has over 300,000 miles on it unless you look at the body,them you would know it has high mileage.
