what does your oil dip stick look like?

Interesting description--LMAO. Some pic's would have been nice too. Was your oil warm when you changed it and what kind of quantity are we talking here? Was there any more than just the center of the oil filter, cause I'm thinking it might have been the glue they used to attach the ends of the filter together.

No
And the oil was at operating temp and there was only a little bit and it was in the center of the filter.

What did the dipstick look? Is there water in there?

Is it possible moisture from short tripping it. The dipstick looked fine.

I vote moisture from short trips.
