[QUOTE="FocalPoint, post: 4438344, member: 2732"] Hi! bugbear 1986. Yeah, I do remember about you calling about the old Tufoil bottle circa 1995 which was sold to you for an astronomical RM 88!! Old is indeed gold though we still have a couple of them still in potent condition. The squeaks are not from the pistons. If you can really hear them, you would deafened by the "big bangs" in te cylinders too. It could be "knocking" or engine pinging which is due to inaccurate engine timing or even low octane petrol. By the way, who actually checks if 95 is really 95 and 97 is indeed 97? Squeaks could also be due to belt slippage due to irregular wear or water and grease contamination. Check also air-cond and alternator pulleys. I do not know about you. For me, I will only have oil changed in my presence. I will never accept the instruction that I have to spend time in a waiting room with free expresso and biscuits.Mistakes and carelessness can take place when performing this very crucial job.Debris like dirt, lint, cap seals and sand grains can enter engine through dirtied dipsticks and filling funnels. Nothing is free in this world. Take care and give me a tinkle should you pass this way. [/QUOTE]
