Volks, After dealing with the clutch slave cylinder last week I decided to put off the oil change till this week. Well, nothings easy. I pulled the plug and the threads came with it. Any one know what the next size up is for a 2.1? I'm thinking I can go up a size and retap the hole? Auto zone had one 14x1.25 but it was 2/8 of and inch to long and I was not sure if that would hit the camshaft. No good part stores open today so I'll have to wait till tomorrow to see if I can find the right length unless does it matter? The last place to change the oil was some quick place in OH and was the first time it was not serviced by the dealer in San Diego since new. Sure glad the PO saved $10... I'll never let anyone change the oil on my cars anymore. Is this a common problem of the 2.1 my last 88 had the same problem after a jiffy lube Thanks Kevin 87 Westy 81 Vanagon |
