Cantenna Oil

[Dave Edwards]

John... Same results here many years ago. Most of the time, you don't get
something for nothing. The closest I found was tiny 6 to 8 oz. containers of
mineral oil at a pharmacy. I asked at the local utility place, and the one
in the next county over and they essentially laughed.
Glad to hear you are set. I am still using my illegal 10 weight motor oil!!
....Dave
