  1. ok. Since I just changed my filter hopefully I won't run into that noise anymore
  2. It has a few times had a clicking. A couple times on early morning old starts, and once when the oil level got to the low level on the dip stick
  3. I will keep an eye on thing in my next oil change and get an analysis done as well just to make me feel better about the whole thing. No loss of oil pressure that I know of No gold flakes either, the really metallic ones were grey or silver in color
  4. Sorry, forgot the vitals. 1995 Subaru Legacy, ej22. About 190,000. I have a slow oil leak, add half a quart to a quart between changes. I check the levels regularly. There was some lifter noise when the oil got a little on the low side of the dip stick. No head gaskets or major work done recently.
  5. The second pic is of a bigger piece that I squeezed. I've never noticed these things in my oil before. Thanks for looking
  6. I think I found some metal shavings in my used motor oil today. I'm assuming this is a bad thing, but to what degree? Oil is changed regularly, every month and half to two months. This is about the time it took me to get to 3,000 miles. My speedo isn't working consistently anymore so my odometer is off. I couldn't get them to stick to a magnet. A couple little pieces almost looked clear like glass, some metallic and some white (plastic shavings from my oil filter being scraped by my wrench possibly?)
  7. Ngk plugs and ngk wires are reccomended. I've had good luck so far with my car quest wires though
  8. Any suggestions on getting the oil off the underside? Jack up the front and then spray is the only thing I can think of. Some simple green on there too?
  9. Here in North Carolina we have county taxes like this. Sales tax and yearly property tax. I live on the county line and occasionally have two counties try and get a piece
  10. What does everybody think about a engine oil stop leak like the one made by Lucas oil. It was reccomended to me before by a mechanic. That being said he got fired for some reason and that shop never did get my subaru running after taking it there 4 times.
  11. Going to get to get this done sometime over the couple of days. Thanks
