Yeah you didn't have to wash off the oil, I didn't realize at first how bad
my truck got hit, luckily a couple of dents in the cap only(took care of
with a ballpeen) and alot of oil (and what-not)all over the drivers side of
the bed. BTW for my brother v6'ers watchout for those ISZUZU Troopers with
those 3.5 v6's. Those suckers produce 212hp and are quick. My saving grace
was that I have a 5spd and his slushbox wouldn't up shift, otherwise it
would not have been a neck and neck race, and I would have been on the wrong
side of a spanking.
