ah, the tang of the castor bean.

used to run it in formula fords.

best stories of the bean-derived oil are from ww1 pilots. engines had open rockers. pilots of those early aircraft finished their flights covered in castor oil.

though rarely noted, diarrhea was the consequence of flying with the lafayette escadrille and its cohorts.
