Hey, no problem.  I was in kind of a pissy mood that day-not your fault :)

I'd like to hear as well people's opinions of Cast. Syntec.  Keep my engine
going when it gradually lost a _lot_ of oil over the course of 2-3 months
for some reason.  I made the fatal mistake of not checking the oil for a
couple of months :(  There was only enough oil to coat about a quarter of
an inch of the tip of the dipstick.  I quickly added about half a bottle of
syntec and it's just below the middle mark, I'm going to check it today
again.

I learned a very important lesson today- cars do need oil in them :\
What I'd like to know is why my oil warning light never went on-or does the
oil have to go even farther down?
