Thumbs up

First oil change after about 420 miles.

Maybe I should have let it go to 421….

The magnetic drain plug had almost nothing on it so that’s a good sign. Nothing at the bottom of the drain pan I could see and not a hint of sparkle in the oil.

Also gotta give big props to my friend Mick who built the 421, hasn’t leaked a drop of oil or coolant.
