Quit being cheap.. Just pay your $79.95 and save your motor. Everyone knows you need one. Even though it was cool watching your rod fly out of your motor that time.

Re: Oil starvation

with a honda its not a matter of miles.. its more like how many years can you go.. I went 3 years and 60,000 km before my engine bit it.. Mabye an oil change more than once a year would have helped...

Re: Oil starvation

There Are Plenty Of Stories About Oil Starvation And How To Help The Problem, Some Work And Some Are Bull-****. The Stuntex Pickups Are A Huge Improvement To The Stock Set-up, Especially For What We Do And These Are Tested Products That Have Been On The Market For About 2 Yrs. Anybody Interested Can Send Me A Message And Ill Help You Out.

I'm glad you like the Stuntex oil pick-up.
