Geez, and I love popped corn. From a link Reggie posted: http://archives.seattletimes.nwsourc...&date=20030312 "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." --Vic |
