its not to hard to change the oil, bolt goes out bolt goes in.
if you had him change the oil filter also thats a hole different story other than a bolt out bolt in, with a filter change ones got to remember lefty loosy righty tighty.
all that can of stop leak is, is a jar of Elmer's glue just in a fancy wrapper. it works by splashing around the motor when the motor is warm and running
it will fly all over the place, get splashed all over the cams and valves, all over the valve seals, you know just everywhere.
but its not how it gets splashed around thats amazing its what happens when the car is shut off and the motor is allowed to cool thats amazing,
this Elmer's glue that was added to your car and put through the spin cycle is now sitting on every vital part that makes up your motor.
vital parts like.... oh ... say the cylinder walls, lower rings, valve stems, and valve seals.
these parts i mentioned require a small amount of lubrication by the oil, and it just so happens that the parts are put together real tight as to not allow your motor oil to get into the pistion chambers, i know its a paradox, how to lube parts but at the same time restrict the oil from entering the chambers. the answer is to build the parts so close together that just a small oil film will lube the parts and keep everything running.
now that being said.
this jar of Elmer's glue you just added pretended to be noting more than harmless oil, it coated everything but when the motor cools its time for Elmer's to play lock down. when the glue cools it will dry to every part it has hit, once it drys to the lower rings and valve stems and seals it will create blockage for the normal oil to put that ever so small of film on the valve stems to lube the seals. same as lower rings to walls.
that ever so harmless looking 9 dollar can of glue is going to destroy your motor. give it 30,000 miles, if your car dose not start burning oil you dogged a bullet, if it dose its because they don't put this info on the jar of glue before u buy it.
this sounds so scary i almost want to run and hide
