It's like going in for surgery and they ask you about blood donors.

"To save on my deductible, can I get my transfusion from a crack ***** instead?"

Free kicks. lol

"Who cares if this Pacemaker knockoff isn't made with medical-grade plastic? It has a lifetime warranty!" (Duralast pacemaker?)

I think we might be getting carried away though.

Yeah, but it's fun and helps to make a point.

Duralast pacemaker..LOL

Finely crafted by WunHungLow and his comrades. Well, and some cheap child labor in a totally polluted industrial area...

He now owns an engine rebuilding shop.

He has special deals for his former students.

Maybe that's that's why we can't find the chicpea oil.

Ahhh... Probably made by drop bears, mate.

In lieu of Rotella get any heavy duty diesel oil that is also approved for use in gasoline motors. Probably can't go wrong.

Okay, out of Canadian guilt (also afraid of drop bears) I looked up Chicasaw motor oil. The SAE 5W40 product looks hopeful as it doesn't bear any API SN nonsense. I'd avoid the TDX.

From that manufacturer (Chief Oil if we're talking about the same thing) I'd suggest the Pawnee Synthetic HPD SAE 5W40 for best results. If you like Valvoline, pick up some Premium Blue Extreme juice.
