Default Is it a bad idea to have the oil pan off the motor for extended time?

By extended time, I mean a week TOPS, and the cars inside my garage. I took off the oil pan today so i can bring it to my buddy's shop and get it tapped, I just don't know whether I should take the time to crawl back under and attempt to cover the inner workings of the bottom end. Does it matter?

Why not just throw a trash bag on there? Not like it will take long.

dont spray it with brake cleaner, if there is any dust in there it will go in the oil and go to the filter, what u dont want to do is have a preasurized pray push any dirt on to the bearings. your garage is clean enuff with a concreat floor. its just fine. put a peice of cardboard down so you moma dont kill you.


P.Ss Joes mom has some huge tit.
P.S.S All of joes buddy think his mom is hot and joe gets mad when we talk a bout it because he knows we are not lieing and if any one of us had the chance to take her out for drinks wed be on it like a fat kid on a smarty.

get him to post a pic

Didn't think the brake cleaner made much sense, and ---- You TJ.....Ya ------ Douche.

P.S. - Your sister is a Bikini model, why don't you post pics of her on here?
P.S.S - I'd say something about your mom but she gots sum Ghetto-Azz Teefeses. Not a good Tooth-to-Gum Ratio.
