Those 5W series California plates on it were issued only 3 or 4 months ago, so the car may have some kind of an interesting history.

If one tankers want to prove their methods of "one tanking" or "blends" really dont damage the engine theyd have to start off with a motor thats at full compression, run the car for about 10K miles on these blends and check compression at every 1K miles. Then tear down the engine at show that none of the parts are worn. I couldnt prove it, all i proved was that blending had lowered compression and coked up injectors that made the car run like crap. Your proof?

Car runs great....
It does have more pep on Diesel than on cooking oil, but it runs fine. Right now it is at my mechanic having the A/C overhauled, the timing chain replaced, & the valves adjusted. It will run approx. 1,300. for all this, but I have saved that & more in not buying fuel for the 2 years.... Maybe I'll ask him to pull an injector when I go down there to pick it up. Thanks, ....

body looks straight and no orange peel go for it and GET THAT STINKING WVO OUT OF THAT ENGINE!!! wvo will ultimately cut a perfectly good running engine life short. mostly because of the glycerin in the oil also because it thickens the oil its really just not worth it!
