Did you change the oil type or brand, and what weight are you using?

Yeah sorry I was asleep, ended up getting called into work at a weird time. :-/ I'll give you a call back during normal business hours when I'm not susceptible to being called in lol. I do, however, greatly appreciate the callback Thank you.
