Engine on the Floor @ Chevy

When I picked up my front brake hoses last week there was a dirty /
filthy engine sitting on the floor over at one of the goodwrenches
stalls.

Harryface - Hey whats that doing there !?

Goodwrench - ( Grinning ) Its a Jiffy Lube engine.

Harryface - Where's the car at ?

Goodwrench - Out back sitting till the new engine arrives.

Harryface - Jesus Christ !


I didn't even bother asking what kind of car or how old it was. Maybe
next visit I'll ask.

I've seen that happen before. Fill the oil, drive off. Call back b/c
the red light on the dash won't go off, start to turn around......

GM dealer installs new motor & makes sure that oil filter is on tight.
Odd how a little thing like that can cause problems ;-)

even with synthetic oil no less !
