Want to hear the story about the lube place that put transmission fluid in the engine ? How about the ones that are ignorant of the copper washer on the drain plug and just leave it off ? How about the ones that over tighten drain plugs so you end up paying a fortune to have a shop remove it ? (BTW - when they leave the washer off, they always overtighten the plug, because it leaks without it. O, my personal favorite, because it's personal, the one about the shop that overfilled my dear old Dad's car with oil so badly that smoke started pouring out of the exhaust a couple of miles from the oil change place. He got major damage to some emissions components for his $19.95. Bob
