    Look up LR Stickers on Etsy. I used one of their decals for my TRD Offroad. Very nice quality sticker.

    They also sent me a couple bonus "Toyota" stickers in the box. Put one on a tumbler and another on my locker at work.

    Heh, I just seem to hoard things for some reason. Most of it will get used up, some not it seems. Unfortunately I don't have a "beater" anymore to use up leftovers. I'm still wondering what I'm gonna use the extra Castrol 5w50 I need to order for my mowers transmission as it seems the easiest way to get it is in 6qt packs when it only takes 2. Heck, on second thought, I bet a quart here and there in the Tacoma won't hurt a damn thing...

    Most of my "scraps" go into this jug. Doesn't matter the weight or type of oil. It all gets thrown in together. It's what I use in my mower and pressure washer. Been doing it for years.

    In a 1GR? It couldn't care any less about what oil is in it. Dump in 1 quart at each OC. And of you're even a little concerned, just do it during the warm months.

    I used to do that, but with my new mower I'm going to try and be more careful. Apparently the Kohler 22HP Twin really only likes a higher zinc 10w30. Been running the T5 since about 3 hours. Now the oil filter, yea I went oversize like the nut I am :rofl:

    [​IMG]

    It's the biggest filter I can put on there. There's actually a remote oil filter kit for Kohler engines I've been thinking about so I can use the longer filters that my Tacoma uses since they're both 3/4x16 thread. I really need some mental help :rofl:

    I guess if I was running a higher dollar machine...especially a big twin I might be a bit more picky. But many years ago I had a small engine repairman tell me that he had never seen an oil related failure on a small engine where even occasional changes or at least top-offs had been done. Only those who had never had a change and/or been allowed to run low. He said.....frankly the weight and type are not that important at the end of the day. Just check the level before each start, add if necessary and try to change it at least once a season. That's all that's required. And that seems to work for me....though I change it twice a season. In fact, my Briggs powered mower uses less oil now then when I used only the recommended 5/30 synthetic it's first couple of years of service.
