On the same idea, but with a reverse twist: I changed the oil and
filter in my 73 BMW 2002 religiously every 3500 or 4000 miles. I
babied that engine for the eight years I had the car. And
guess what? By around 96,000 miles I was throwing enough blue smoke
on deceleration to require an engine overhaul.
Anyone care to generalize from *that* experience??? :-)
[I know, I know.... Someone's going to say "what did you expect from
THAT car?" :-) ]
