This is not my car!!!! My brother-in-law inhereted the car from his grandmother when she passed away, he is 15 and getting ready to drive. His grandfather always told her to never change the oil, it was a waste, but to just make sure it was full. Well, I believe she topped it off whenever the oil light came on, but thats it. Who knows what oil she used in the car. I suggested he get a UOA from the local lube wholesaler as they offer it for 19.95 with a TBN. This is the info that he gave to me over the phone today.......He lives in another state.

I find this UOA quite discouraging. The car acually runs!!! It does smoke some when accelerating from what he told me, but not that bad. Any suggestions besides 12 ARX treatments????
