[Shotimes] farting car revis

[Michael S Wojton]

Yeah, what was I thinking!?

The noise, from inside the car anyways, sounds like it's coming from right
outside the firewall, on the drivers side.  I should probably have someone
start it when I have my head under the hood listening for it to get a better
idea of where it's coming from.

Don M. told me once upon a time it's probably the oil bypass when
extremely cold.  Mine's been doing it for years, no detectable problems.

He mentioned that he's seen the problem go away when the car switched to
0W-30 Mobil or Amsoil.

P.S.  You want to keep this serious when you have "fart" in the subject
and "toot" in the body?  Ha!

I know that this was discussed not long ago.  Was there a consensus on
what it is?  I admit I didn't pay much attention to the thread then
because my old car didn't do it.  But this one does.  One toot, about a
second after startup when the car is cold.  Like in the morning or after
work.

Let's try to keep this serious, ok?  ; )
