If you have a car that only gets used for short, short trips, it is a good idea to get it out on the highway once in a while just to get it up to a high enough operating temperature to boil the condensed water vapor out of the oil
If your oil (although some true synthetics may alter this premise) is up over 100degreesC you are in trouble. Even more, if you can get it anywhere up there, whilst it is being actively cooled by the engine design, you have travelled a long, long, long, loooong way. And even more, if you are seriously mayonnaised you are going to do irrepairable damage to the motor.
Just change it. Less fuel, less danger, less wear and tear. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
