Is it really hot in central FL? Need to move to the panhandle!

Serviced the starter (took apart, cleaned, re-lubed and re-assembled).
Openedd the oil pan and to a happy surprise there was almost nothing there to be found - only few small peaces of brown plastic, probaly from chain guides.
Tested those peaces with magnet to confirm them to be plastic.

Also the oil pickup was fully clean.

Yesterday was time to change the Bank 1 chain ramps.

Those look real nice - only the VarioCam small lower pad with oil channel showed wear.
Also cams and cam cover looked real nice with almost no any wear.
Looks like frequent oil changes are paying off.
