Right now, six one quart bottles subtotals to $44.96 with free shipping. Don't know about California or Alaska/Hawaii delivery, as I'm in Texas. You can get on the email list and get info on sales, and often times they have a hat, gloves, filter wrench, or some other kind of freebie thrown in. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 899 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 899 | Is this commonly used in Stovebolt engines? Are there advantages over synthetic oils?
