"It cleans out diesel tanks like a hefty dose of paint thinner, is
made of renewable products such as soybean oil and gives off an odor
more than a little reminiscent of French fries. "

There was another reference to popcorn in a different link Reggie
included, but I can find it now. It said the exhaust *didn't* smell
like popcorn.
There was a comedian named Dave who appeared on the Joey Bishop
show years ago as a used car salesman. Detailed his tricks, one of
which was pouring used Crisco into the crankcase to suppress main
bearing thumping. After about 5 minutes laying out his deceptions,
Bishop asked, "So, Dave, what precautions do you recommend the used
car buyer take when making a purchase?".
Dave replied, "Well, probably the easiest thing to do is start it and
run it untils it's warmed up a bit. Pull the dipstick and give it a
sniff. If it smell like fried chicken, just walk on by."
