Default No risk, imo.Why not change weekly?It's between the 2 extremes."Highest good lays in the mean"-Plato
Some AMSoil guys go 20k. I know for a fact the 6000-8000 is fine on decent dino oil. That's the whole point of science and engineering, to do it right.

Default Mine still leaks air at the point the tube fits to the male connector with...
the O-ring on the top of the extractor. The tube is pretty loose on there. I couldnt fit a clamp on it since the bung is recessed. I'm seriously thinking of just siliconing the damn thing on there. Any advice? Thanks. cheers! Mike

Latex caulk will do fine as long as it's adhesive.
