And then I still take it easy. I get on the highway and can hit 100km/h without breaking 2200rpm. Once the oil is up to 30C+ then I’m more comfortable.

Multi-vis[cosity] oils attempt to address this issue by mixing low-viscosity with high viscosity constituents to create an oil that works at both cold and hot extremes...

Damn hydraulic lifters take forever to pump up.

Good advice.

Cal Worthington was still selling them in the ‘60's and ‘70's... but I like the way you think.

Old cars with standard transmissions are all around us.

Also the back in my day all cars were manuals... is complete garbage.

Hydraulic clutch fluid = Brake fluid.

Tell the truth. Your feet were a little sore the day after you got home.

That would have been Dr. House:

Why not both?

Problem is, because it’s new exciting technology, a few deaths will be considered acceptable losses.

Ever notice that whenever you and a driver that usually drives on the other side of the road head out to get in a car, both walk to the same side of the car?

And pilots are generally far, far away from hard things that can break their plane. Cars are only feet away from getting wrecked.

Neither one is going to know they killed someone until after it happens.

You can thank Marc Brunel for starting this trend of automating manufacturing and replacing humans with machines.

Probably a regional thing. Southern California was all about the cars back then (and breathing was way overrated).

Mom used to daily a 1967 911S to her job at the grade school back in the ‘70's.

AAA driving school was for the rich kids. high school was doing driver ed for the rest of us, back in the ‘70's.

Only time I got punched in the leg by dad.
