Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

equipment: 2 bottle cote rotie, any vintage 1/4 or 3/8 I.D. plastic hose shop vac with 1 1/4 hose Directions: 1. drink one bottle of the wine. When reasonably sober, insert the tube into the dipstick tube 2. turn shop vac on 3. insert other end of tube into empty wine bottle (this won't work with a plastic bottle) 4. With thumb and forefinger, make a seal around bottle opening and apply shop vac to top of thumb/forefinger. 5. watch oil level in bottle. 6. remove, wipe everything off, wash hands, drink other bottle

POST 3Original post

Nice. Very important to do step 6 properly, and drink from the correct bottle.

POST 5Original post

i'll have a glass of the ten-thirty chardonnay please.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I guess I left out the important details. It was a 2000 Guigal Brune et Blonde C�te Rotie (red, of course). YMMV The role of the second bottle is to celebrate success and dispel the oil smell in the nostrils. BTW a plastic bottle won't work because the reduced pressure collapses the bottle.

POST 7Original post

Is that anything like FreightTrain Red in the green bottle with the screw cap you can get over on B/side...

POST 8Original post

I tried this with 2 bottles of Louis LaTour Corton Charlamagne, but I drank both bottles, and didn't give a sh_t that there was too much oil!!!!!

POST 9Original post

a six pack would work just the same except you would have a harder time remembering what bottles to drink out of.

POST 10Original post

Does a bottle of Tito's Hand made Vodka work just as well?

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Please send all prospective bottles (with original contents) to me for testing and verification. I will issue a report on the results.
