As a certified gear-head, I can tell you that if your oil is gooey black, you need to change it.

I politely disagree.
His oil is not gooey or tarry, from his post. His oil is the colour of black tar, which is a very different comment. What is wrong with that colour? The only reason that the oil colour is significant in this post is that it is not light beige, which would indicate that the missing coolant may be in the oil.
Checking the level is a good idea, and an annual change if there are low miles, but apart from that the indicator bars are pretty good. Let's not create problems where there aren't any.
