    So the purpose of this post is self flagellation?

    Is your truck under 200k with regular oil changes over it's life? Yes?

    If you've drained all the magic elixer and refilled with the correct grade of SAE oil, I'll take odds of 98-2 that it's a non event.

    BTW, take note of my signature, which I just changed especially for you. :thumbsup:

    ah that makes sense and answers my question. I knew that about transmissions but i didnt know you could also do a flush on an engine. My thing is just to keep the fluid clean and go from there. I guess ive never been exposed to flushes before, only drain and fills

    I thought it tasted like cold, bittersweet chicken broth.

    Mine was a powder you mix with water. I still distinctly remember my thoughts as I was drinking that first glass: "I am intentionally giving myself diarrhea."

    It does start to just go straight through you after the 10th or 12th time you go too the bathroom after drinking it

    Yeah.
    Yep, get up thinking you are done for the moment, only to turn right back around. Or, sit there so long that your legs fall asleep and tear down the towel rack as you bounce off the walls trying to get up.

    You are correct Ryan. I misquoted.

    To get a little serious here, you very well could die... A lotta dudes die from the butt cancer stuff that goes unnoticed.

    Besides, you might like it and get the Mrs. involved next time... :poking:
