Reason I asked is because with my '99, I can only see if that little hole in the dipstick is filled right after an oil change with 5W-30. With my '97, it had the stainless steel cable dipstick and that sucker was hard to read since the part you read the level was tiny and didn't have a hole even a cross-hatched area.

After about 3,000 miles, I can finally start to see the oil on the stick without having to stand in the noon sunlight.

I'm really going to have a bear of a time when I turn this truck in for a new one.

Hehe....this is funny. I'm not even sure what an SPC is. And I work in the construction industry. It's just that when I was in college my stat class was at 9:00. Which means I was still hopped up on caffeine. Which means I was able to pay attention. I remembered what a standard deviation was, it fit the situation, so I used it. What is SPC anyway?
