    Has this oil really been in there 19 years?

    I have personally seen oil so thick from deterioation - that you had to pull the oil pan and scrape the oil out it was that thick. You could stick a piece of steel standing up in it and it would not budge. Try pumping that chit through your rod and main bearings - none the less the cam bearings.

These are 120,000 Bottles of IsoButane - or Butane or Propane - depending on what the order was. Back at the Total plant in Alma Mich while unloading...
