2.4 oil fill cap dance
Wednesday, August 02, 2006 9:14 PM
I was reading through a few questions when I remembered the 01 cav that I traded in that had 700 miles on it. At the time I was working on a customers cavy that had a 2.4 in it , O pulled the fill cap off and it about hit me. I could blow dry my hair by all the blow by that was coming out. So I went over to my cav , figured that 700 miles on it , it shouldnt do it. i was wrong, So after I took off the oil cap I placed it on the opening, and watched it dance around a bit, pretty neat.
Is this that common, Normally when a car comes in and it does that it will have a hundred thousand miles or more on it. Not 700 miles.
Is this a design flaw?
Does any one elses cap do a dance?
