Man,

You must be an OLD guy!  <GRIN>  I paid $0.10 (maybe it was $0.15) per quart 
for that foul smelling stuff.  Came in a glass container with a metal spout 
shaped like a funnel.  I'm over 60.  Used it in my '35 F--d 2dr.  This was 
around 1963-4.

It used a bit of oil.  I recall trying to slow the consumption by getting 
some Molybdenum (sp?) pellets from Washawsky (now J. C. Whitney), 
unscrewing the plugs and putting some (maybe a half dozen or so) into each 
cylinder and starting up.  That (I think it was 65hp) V8 flathead, made a 
racket for a couple of minutes.  Can't say whether or not it slowed the oil 
consumption.  Never had the engine apart, so don't know what it REALLY did 
in there.
