metal shavings on oil magnet?????
buddy just called me thinking i was some kind of mechanic lol. the last 3 or 4 times he's changed the oil on his low milage 5.3 (68,000 miles) he has had some shavings on the magnet on the plug you pull from the oil pan. he's freaking out. he uses mobil 1 10w30 and changes it every 3K. BTW he drives like a bat outa hell... i told him i would figure it out for him. whats up with this?
