Why change the oil at 500 miles?

Re: What a dumb ***
Per the engine rebuilder. Maybe Mike, Chris, or others can give feedback.
Maybe it has something to do with the greases or lubricants the engine was
put together with. When I changed it out there was some thicker, sluggier
stuff at the bottom of the drain pan.
Actually suppose to do it at 350 miles. My odometer is off due to the
different tire size other than stock so it's somewhere around there.

Re: What a dumb ***
Well, as bad as this might for Bill, I for one am really glad he posted. I'll
show my ignorance by saying I've never heard of the dreaded double gasket
before. I can't even begin to guess at how many times I've changed my own oil.
And in all those oil changes I've never once checked to make sure the old gasket
was not on the old oil filter where it belonged. I guess I'm just lucky.
Thanks Bill, I'm checking my oil filters from here on out. Any fool can learn
from his own mistakes, it takes someone of considerably more intelligence to
learn from the mistakes of others.

Re: What a dumb ***
Thanks Dean,
That's part of the "why" I post such experiences. If you do a search for
my name and Jeep you'll probably learn enough to write a book. Hey, what an
idea. :-)
The other part is to get stomach knots, sinking feelings, and otherwise a
hard education from Mike, Bill, Chris, and others :-).
