It was only changed about 30-40000 ago but it's not going to bother the car to be changed out.

CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

Overkill, I know, but condition of the engine talks for itself (minus the tappets)
I have to work - People on the dole depend on me.

Just replaced the one in the RVR.
Don't know when it was last done, but it's a Japanese MMC filter

Re: Mini DIY day this Sunday
Haven't noticed a real change yet.
I found it's a bit difficult to start currently, first go I expected, but even the 3rd still takes 2 cranks :S
I'm hoping for a few more kms to a tank now!
Next week I change the o2 sensor
