Potential issue on 4cyl truck

When pulling the dipstick to check oil it would be very easy to drag it across the positive post on the battery if the cover wasn't in place.

 

So don’t do that.

 

Back in the day, working in the express lube at my Toyota dealer, i once did this to an auto trans dip stick.

Needless to say, one of our real techs got an opportunity to do some work. It welded the stick to the tube.

I've progressed so much further since then.

 

Ive done that to my previous vehicles, cool sparks.

 

so free fireworks show? count me in

 

Before you check the oil, look around and make sure the fuel line connections are tight and not leaking!

 

This is literally the only dirt we could drag up on the current I4?


Figures.

 

I don't do that, but i can see it happening to someone that isn't careful or observant. Current dirt on I4 is its slow.

 

But it goes all 10 rounds and never drops its hands. Ever.

I4 w/manual FTW

 

Loved my 2010. It was a drowned rat on 31s but damn it was dope.
