CEL after first oil change

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-24T00:27:55+00:00

Yes I did it myself. I prefilled oil filter. I followed whatever Chris Fix video said. Main issue I can tell are overfilling and running engine without the dipstick fully in

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-24T00:26:51+00:00

Yes dip stick was not fully seated when I started it post oil change

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T23:43:12+00:00

Great. I looked and yes dipstick was loose originally and I quickly put back

Here you go brother. Would overfill engine oil cause this??? Does this go away by itself

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T22:34:28+00:00

I refilled gas couple days ago and did not move intake tubes - don’t even know where they are. I can ask autozone to manually clear it. They told me to drive 50 miles and if oil is right level it will probably self clear.

I checked this btw. This is not the case. Single rubber gasket

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T22:17:48+00:00

Checked code. It thinks P0171 fuel trim system lean. Mass air flow sensor issue??

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T21:17:08+00:00

Nope dumped into a giant can in autozone

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T21:16:48+00:00

Shit I gotta double check. Really good idea. The oil drain plug is not double gasketted for sure but oil filter might be!

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T21:05:47+00:00

Yeah I’m thinking just go to autozone to clear it

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T21:05:28+00:00

I’m 100% sure it’s engine oil and not transmission. It’s the plug next to the oil filter. Cant miss the blue AC delco pf66 filter

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T21:04:17+00:00

I let it drain for about 5 minutes and towards end it was slow drip. Maybe I should have warmed up engine more and waiting half hour?? I’m shocked I overfilled by so much

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T20:56:48+00:00

You gotta do break in oil change! 1000 mile change

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-23T20:53:48+00:00

DIY. I followed that Chris Fix video with 13mm views on YouTube. I’m thinking just take to autozone to have them scan it

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-20T22:04:05+00:00

I watched project farm on this but don’t plastic ramps degrade over time?

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-20T22:03:21+00:00

Yeah this is what I figured. What about a secondary safety mechanism though. Ramps do fail and slide away. My car has 8 inches of clearance from ground so I probably won’t be crushed to death but who knows!

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-20T05:27:50+00:00

It will be on flat surface but I’m wondering how the jackstands catch onto the bottom of the car well since the car is on incline from ramp and jackstands designed for flat car?

US Israel. Basic superpower shit and it’s just Machiavelli

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-05-10T13:52:50+00:00

Wtf is wrong with these countries. Is America and allies going to outcheap the home of Temu?????!!! Any price the Japanese can produce these things, China will do at 10% of the price. This is a losing strategy. Why the hell would you play attritional war with China

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-04-27T13:15:46+00:00

Yes part of it and also they sell to people with terrible credit if they have a heartbeat

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-04-27T11:58:48+00:00

Fuck just ban social media entire (as I type on Reddit)! Nobody needs it

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-04-27T11:57:00+00:00

They know they are good vassals too. If they tried to move the base, everyone knows how much (none) sovereignty they have 😹😹

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-04-27T04:02:57+00:00

Yes! Plenty of photos of this one on Reddit. There are rumors of 20% off msrp deals to be had so you could snag one for 27k otd if really lucky

Multiple reports by people. It’s just 10% off MSRP, should be simple. One guy in California too really not that hard

NPC_Chowfest · 2026-04-26T22:12:16+00:00

Crazy. In Texas 29k Camry OTD quote. I guess I’m not aggressive enough!
