NOW I remember what it was I needed to pick up while I was there in the vendor area at the 'Vair Fair...   

Oh well, shipping couldn't be that much.  ;)   


It has come to my attention that it's getting harder and harder to find the *right* oil filter for a 'Vair engine.   Most of the FLAPS that still carry something to fit a 'Vair only offer those filters with that lousy top gasket that slices through if you overtighten just a tad.    


...I suppose this is more than ever a good reason to buy filters from your favorite 'Vair vendor, huh...
