and possibly some free-floating crap in the air could have fallen into the oil fill hole in its absence... any reason to change the oil early or would he just be OCD for even thinking that?

 

Check you oil level. It could have spit some out. I wouldn't worry too much about the dirt unless you were driving through the Mojave.

 

It did spit some out, not a lot, got it all cleaned up. I'll have to wait until morning to use our lovely dipstick we all love.

 

defenetly add more oil! youd be suprise how much **** comes out. I hade my sipstick out a little bit and I squirted oil everyware I tought I blew my blower seal, I was so releived when it wasnt, but I lost 1/2 a quart

 

Not much will come out for NA motors unless you floor it all the time. OCD or not, what's an oil change going to cost you, $25? Change the oil/filter - it's a no-brainer.

 

Z owner card has been revoked, along with your license.

how might i suppose did you FORGET to put the cap back on? distracted?

 

Dude thats really bad, especially when you call yourself an idiot and spell it wrong...

 

OK, that was really funny.

Wait, I thought this was a hypothetical situation??

 

effing eh....there would be a trail of oil and a hefty bill from the municipality who was chasing behind the oil trail with cat litter.

I read minds.

 

more like 70 for synthetic n k&n filter...

nice, i even typo'd idiot in my thread title... good catch hah!

 

i would just do an oil change for safe measure. A lot of oil can come out.

 

Yea, I think I will change the oil tonight, I cant stand the thought of sand chewing up my motor driving it now... it will be an oportunity to switch to German Castrol anyway.

 

Just remember to put the oil cap back on. Hypothetically speaking.

 

Haha, this thread is cracking me up. I'd change my oil and filter just to be safe if it was me in this hypothetical situation, .

 

We have to put oil in motors?

 

oil is a performance mod. Dont worry about it.

 

+1.

At least when you change your oil, you'll get +15whp.

 

Synthetic? Nah... If you think you may do the 'oil breather' mod again, use dino oil and cut your operating costs. BTW, you haven't topped off your brake fluid reservoir lately, have you? That would make a real mess.

 

YEP!

 

Thought that was blinker fluid!
