This past weekend I checked the oil level and it was low, real low. I added a qt and 1/2 to a warmed up engine and ran it. Checked again and it was good. The oil level light on the dash indicted just above red and the pressure (druck) was dancing between 4 and 6.
I took here for a little drive today. All things fine. I have notice a bit of oil drips over the past few months so after the drive I popped the hood. Seems as though I forgot to put the oil cap back on.
It was where I left it. The deck lid kept it in place.
I figured maybe the oil would have sprayed a bit but I didn't see anything and the level was fine.
Not sure how bad that could have been but I am sure it wasn't good.
Ever avoid catastrophe by being lucky?
