On the way back from the NEMGTRegister GOF in Canada, we crossed into New York
State and the three cars in our group immediately filled up with gas( lot
cheaper then Canadian prices). One of our group was pouring in the usual quart
of oil to his leaking TD engine. As the poor pump jockey looked at the engine
I
walked over to my friend and admired out loud over the wonder of his rust
inhibitor device (the engine). I told him "Gee how neat, that thing in there
stores the oil and as you drive ,lightly disperses the oil in just the right
amounts to keep a nice film on the engine compartment and chassis. " He
replied,"right and this fan up here ensures and even coat" The gas attendant
was
so confused, didn't know to believe us or not. The car had no rust.
