I'm sure that's happened to a lot of us at one point in time. I'll bet that on all of your future oil changes that'll be the first thing you look at is that damn filter gasket!

Re: Minnesota
I haven't been as active on here....for several reasons. Biggest one is I've been working 12 hour days, 7 days a week for the last month and a half on this damn project at work. Usually I walk in the door, collapse and go to sleep. Plus I haven't done anything to the Ranger lately. I did discover the other day that it has an exhaust leak at the manifold and I think the head gasket might be starting to give up the ghost (yippee). There's oil on the top of the engine and it's starting to pool by the spark plugs.
Anyways I joined Glenn's group.
I'm Calvin, I live in Fridley.
