What Happens When You Don't Change Your Oil?

Опубликовано 16 марта 2018, 10:15

A lot of things happen to your engine when you don't change the oil. None of them good. In this video I highlight what happens to the rubber seals in your engine if you go extended periods between oil changes.

I was able to repair this 2002 3.5RL by replacing the valve cover gaskets and cam seals. However, there still may be issues with some of the other rubber seals down the road. As I said in the video, this effects all the rubber seals in the engine, not just the valve covers.

It may seem obvious, but be sure to change your oil on a regular basis to avoid the same fate.
