Check oil pan, plug and cut open filter to look for signs of IMS failure, bits o' water pump impeller etc. If all is clean and in the clear, is it possible that the IMS could completely fail by the next oil change? Anyone have any ideas on duration of failure? __________________ 1998 986 with ladder racks.
