Re: dipstick read & "oil high" notice in the odometer in v-6 engine
I bought a new GMC truck in 1993 with a 4.3L V6 in it. THAT was an ENGINE. In march of 2014, on my birthday, the second owner sent me a photo of the odometer - 406,000 miles.
Just after the photo, it got it's first clutch, when a bolt broke off in there. The A/C, radio and one power window didnt work. He had replaced the distributor, two radiators, plugs, a heater core, wiper motor, ball joints, u-joints, brakes, alternator and water pump - but the engine internals were original. It is on the road today, but is so rusted that he no longer drives it 31 miles to work every day.
