Is there anything like a Oil level gauge? my 7a is burning oil, and I'd like to know what level the oil is at at all times...

Dipstick.
(No, that's not an insult) While the oil is running through the engine there's really know way to gauge just how much oil is running through everything so the only way to know is to let the car cool and check your dipstick. -------------------- "He won't come out of the bathroom. He keeps telling us we're dark somethings and not his friends."
"Hmm. Ask him if he's the dragon reborn." "What?" "Just do it." ".......He said yes." "Tell him you are not darklings. He should open up." ".......Sweet. Thanks." "No problem." |
