My favorite is Yamabond #4. It's a non-hardening sealant. It works by itself, or as a gasket cement. I started using it when I was into british bikes, and managed to have one of the few '71 Bonnivill

I've been wondering- with these units, what happens to the nasties that're in the used oil? Metals, sludge and toxins. Where do they go when you use the oil for heat? Up the stack and into the atmosp
