What did you do to your Hellcat today?

Yes, an oil change...

======================

Idle hands are the devil’s workshop; idle lips are his mouthpiece.

======================


Bare with me on this...

So the image above is me laying on the creeper waiting for some magic moment of the dirty oil drips slowing to a point that makes me content that I've gotten a sufficient amount of the old oil out before I close everything back up and refill with clean oil.

Going on an hour of drips (from a HOT engine besides)... Having played this game many times before, you can wait for HOURS and it will still be dripping dirty oil...

As I'm laying here waiting for "The Slowing", I'm wondering how much of the oil that is coming out is from the puddle at the bottom of the oil pan, or is from oil dripping off of every engine component. (probably both)

But I bet the vast majority of it is the puddle.

(Keep in mind I turn in oil samples to Blackstone with each change.)

With the puddle in mind, I grabbed a quart of the PUP and dumped it in there, with the idea that a full quart of oil to flush out the remaining puddle (after a full hour) would help purge out that nasty.

(I act like I'm rich and the crazy expensive PUP isn't a thing...)

Well, if all goes to plan, I should see a notable drop in my NEXT oil analysis from Blackstone.

Patience young Grasshoppers, this will come in due time...

I was thinking one hell of a leak. LOL

Changed out my Mr. Kustom puddle lights. One of the old ones had a blurred image (pretty sure from leaving the door open too long). These are the drill type so they’re a little pita, but these were the ones that were on the car when I got it so that’s what I went with. If anyone ever does this, don’t forget to flip one of the lenses or your cat heads will both be looking in the same direction lol. Not something you wanna find out once you get the door panels back on

How does it feel being rich? 😉

I bought the direct replacement type, for my Charger. Yep. Had to flip two image films around.

On mine, I wanted the cat heads facing away from the car, on both sides. This way it matches my HC embroidered headrests.

OCD? Maybe...

I’ve been itchin to take this thing to the track so I went ahead and ordered an aluminum 4” DSS, P4D brace, and Gforce safety loop. Not looking to break records with a 6speed lol, just lookin to go have some fun!

Safety loop for an M6??

You sure?

It's been a while, but last I knew, there wasn't one...

@ACMAVRO Ive got to wonder if they will fit a 4in ds? Many Ive heard wont.
