Opinions About Oil Changes
Just wondering what the concensus of opinion is regarding oil changes. I have always thought that changing the oil in the Cobra at the end of the driving season just before tucking her in for the winter was a good idea to get rid of the acids and blow by that accumulate during the driving season. The other day I had a competent mechanic ask me why I did that. He suggested changing the oil in the Spring at the beginning of the driving season.
I run a 351W with dual quads (Holley #8007 390 cfm carbs), thermostatically operated oil cooler, street driving only, approximately 1500 miles per year. So, what's the concensus? Change in the Fall or change in the Spring?
