Forgive me if this has been done before but I feel it is best that I make this thread so I let you guys know what is going on while I am doing this. Since it is unlikely that we all have the exact same issues while we work on our cars I think it is a good idea for me to make this thread. Thank you all in advance and I appreciate the help and advice.
So now I am draining the oil and when i took out the oil pan bolt the oil poured into my oil container and it pooled up quite a bit before I plugged the hole to let it drain into the container, the oil seems to be pretty thick. Could this be the coolant and oil mixture, a heavy oil weight, or because it is just a cold heavy weight oil? I do pretty much all of the oil changes in my family and I have not seen oil pool on top of the container like that and be so thick. I am hoping it is just the coolant/oil mix from the BHG or just a heavy weight and it's all normal. We all have Hondas in our family and we use like 5W-30.
