I once had a car that used a lot of oil, so I used to think that topping it
up would substitute for changing. After a while (10K miles!), the oil light
would come on, while idling. Hmm.. Bad pump or bad switch?
No! It was oil that was thinner than water, and blacker than paint..
Listen to Phil! He's right...
