I'm tellin ya, it's buyer beware, everywhere. Parts houses, resturants, DEALERSHIPS.
Went in to get a filter and derby gasket for the oil change on my 07 Ultra. Parts guy gives me a paper gasket.I say, that ain't it, went back and forth until he looked it up. Sure nuff, it's big rubber "o" ring type.
Ordered a Egg McMuffin this morning, they gave me a Sausage Biscuit, I had already driven off too.
Gotta check the sacks and read the labels before ya leave the stores, or it's on you now days.[:@]

I returned the oil today and there was a new guy (different from last night)at the counter . This Oreiley really sucks. The guy was about to tell me they don't sell this type of oil but I pulled out the receipt. He goes to the back for 30 seconds and say they don't have it. I told him an inventory was done at another store and I was here last night. The oil is back there. I noticed another guy from last night he goes to the back and gets the oil. The new guy finished the transaction and didn't even bag my purchase. I used my old bag and bagged it myself and left. I changed my mind, I'm not going back to that Oreiley.

The gasket does replace the o-ring. Use the gasket on both my WG and UC and it is a breeze to install and doesn't leak. On my 4th primary oil change with the same gasket with no problems.

RE: Oil change almost went bad!
I was getting the oil changed in my wife's Expedition the other day at aquick lube place. I always stand around and watch. When they got ready to pour the new oil in, I noticed it was 5W20.I told the guy, I don't think that is the right oil. He said, this is what is recomended. I asked, where does it say that, on the oil cap. He said its in the computer. I walked over and looked on the sticker under the hood. I said it says 5w30 right here. They drained 2 or 3 quarts and put in 5w30.
Its always good to pay attention. These people don't care about you.
