Knock on wood I haven't had the lead plate issue. That sucks.
Another issue I've recently discovered is the inaccurate dipstick oil measurement. For years I thought my 5.0 was burning and leaking oil. For awhile it was leaking until I dropped the oil pan to replace the gasket. The consumption problem did not go away. Then one day after changing the oil I put the disptick in to measure the new oil which I never do, why would I when i know how much i just put in. Here's the picture of fresh new 7.7 quarts. The factory disptick is wrong! So all these years I'm thinking it's consuming oil so I keep adding more to it. I've probably been driving it with 9 or more quarts.
