ORIGINAL: MarkNieb

I know I need to drain it, that's obvious. Though I would like to know where a filter for the oil is? I took the car to the track last saturday. It ran 11.83 @ 68mph.
how does that happen? ._.

Read your owners manual.. read here on the forums.. read howstuffworks they have tons of explanations of car whatnot....

Take your cobra somewhere to get the oil changed. Ask them to use synthetic oil.. mobil 1 or something along those lines. They'll change your filter too. Or at least they SHOULD.

Not gonna be mean, cause everybody else was already. I missed the opportunity. I understand you don't know what you're doing.. but when you come into a car enthusiast forum and start asking if you pour your oil through your dipstick tube... you're just asking to get flamed...

I think that concludes tonights boredom for me...

I was at a gas station once,beside me was a brand newLincoln with the hood open & 3 kids were arguing where to add oil to top it up. I guess they figured out how to use the dipstick lol. They're pointing all over the place, one guy even pointed at the coolant overflowcap! [&:]So I waunder over & pointto the oil filler cap & go back to my car. The say thanks, but as I'm walking away one of the guys says "no way dude, that's where the pistons are!"

I'm pretty sure I've NEVER seen a car run 11.-- at 68 mph. Is that even possible?!


Thought not!

I know, I'm new, and should be nice, but come on!

OK, Im done!

OK...68mph maybe. Just under 12 Seconds (without traction on the line) thats a joke. First let me say you don't need to make-up numbers to make yourself sound hardcore. If you just be honest, know that you drive a mustang, and get a new pair of sunglasses...your be hardcore like you want to be. Don't lie to us here. If you are confussed about if that is an 1/8 or a 1/4 mile, ask we are honest here. Do lie to be cool...we already think your a fool...[sm=wakeup.gif]
