Well; I'm auto expense broke until next paycheck. I drive 60 miles/day to and from work. Think I'll be okay for 500 miles (apx 1 week)?

Just watch the oil for any milky look. Also watch the underside of the oil filler cap for any foam build up.

Default Drove from Detroit to Chicago

Well... pep Boys did the O2 Sensor last week. Car is driving much better. Drove her from Detroit to Chicago this weekend and she did great! One tank of gas each way.

Also: They're gonna change the oil sensor this week "Free of Charge" cause it "is" giving a bad signal.
