Just taken off a 2001 CRV 2.0 liter a couple days ago. Initial fill was 1 quart of Quaker State Higher Mileage Engine 10w-40 and ~3.7 quarts of Quaker State Higher Mileage Engine 10w-30. Not sure of all the top-off because this is not my vehicle. I know I added a 15 ounce bottle of Smitty's oil treatment shortly before the end of this OCI.
Oil change done early because of a dipstick tube failure. I was wondering why it was going through so much oil. I hope the repair diminishes the oil use.
Date code:
I had the filter base down over a jar for a day, no oil drained.
I cut the filter and emptied it into a jar. Here is the oil. Not bad.
Bypass valve leaf-spring impression:
Media:
As usual, no tears. I did an inspection with a light in the dark. Solid.
Good job Jay!
