I never said taking the car to WOT, in fact I said the very opposite, not to rev it under NO load.Quote:
, roast Gs on the fire with bursting oil lines, and make these cars plagued by other problems and idiotic designs like the recessed oil filter housing on earlier G's. And I did not even mention early clutches made of parmesan cheese! See other threads on this forum and ask those owners what they think of the engineers. So NO, I do not give them as much credit as you do. You have obviously made up your mind about that, and so have I, based on what horrors I have witnessed with these cars ![]() Quote:
In real life, in your average 4 month winter, with a start every 2 weeks, you start the car up only 9 times. And do you know how many minutes the car actually "runs rich" after startup? I don't, because there is no simple answer to this.... The miniscule amount of gas dilluting your oil, if any, is of no consequence. I stand by my opinion. You are throwing out theory and broad generalizations from others. I am not buying it for this specific real life scenario. Since you are pulling out all sorts of references, I can also tell you that I worked in an oil testing lab at one time, so I have practical experience with this. I can not prove what I say to you as being fact. But someone else can. Someone on this board with a G that they park all winter could! There is a simple test, specific to the G. They start with clean oil, and send it to one of those oil testing services after they drain it in the spring. They will tell you how much gas is NOT in the oil. Fear dispelled. Look, the reality the cars hold 8-10 L of oil. And that is a huge amount to try to dillute with gas or the other contaminants you mention. Do you know how much gas you would have to add to the oil to change its viscosity to the point it would make a difference? How long would that take running your engine rich? I do not expect you to answer that, just making my point. In summary, I fully stand by my original statements and opinions. You disagree, so we will just have to agree to disagree. I am done with this thread, because I think we both stated our positions, they are now clear, and they differ. ![]() It will be up to the readers to form their own opinions and do their own due dilligence
