Just checked my oil in my 350, and it really looked filthy black. So I just had it changed. When I put it away last fall, I added a little oil, and it looked pretty clean. I run Mobile1 10/30. I've had it out for the last 3 weeks, and have put some pretty fair miles on it. Now, with the aluminum rad, even on the ho...
