I can't do that.   One lunch is enough...    

I use the same bottle and I stick the narrow snout int the dipstick tube
and squeeze (on the '65 ragtop).   This will also work on a Fiat Multipla
(via a length of hose) so as to not try to crawl under the little sucker to
forcefeed 90 wt sideways through a hole the size of a dime.     

If I go have several lunches it will set a precedent and next thing ya know
I'll look like Louie Anderson only without the gap in the teeth.   I'm big
enough already, could stand to drop 20 lbs.      



...maybe squeezing that gear lube bottle in November might build biceps...   



tony..   


PS:   I've never had to put gear lube in a Subaru
