Oil cap happenings?
Posted: Tue Aug 02, 2005 8:26 pm
I've read other people had missing oil caps after they had the oil changed. Well, today on the way home, I got off the highway and was sitting at a red light, after I kicked the valves in passing someone. So, I smelled oil, I just thought it was the car in front or something and was hoping I didnt blow anything. So, drove another mile or so, and smelled it again. Pulled into a store, popped the hood and oil was everywhere. Seems the cap popped off somehow and oil was all over the cover and some on the hood and top of firewall. It's been 2 months since I had the oil changed. It took a heck of a long time to pop off if it wasnt on right. Just wondering if anyone else had this happen way after an oil change?
