Eureka

"Marvin The Martian", was right it was an oil problem.
I got the alien synthetic eludium Q32 oil; added to full mark and she works great.
I napped on the way to work and on the way home; wow, the difference a little oil in the right place can make.
The diamond ring I got for the auto pilot may have helped a little. LOL

In addition to greasing my antenna with frequency grease, I had the electrons cleaned in my radio to improve reception.
FYI: When greasing your antenna with frequency grease it is very important to use the right kind for the frequencies in your area. I found that multi-hertz grease works best.

I like using the frictionless grease on my windshield. It helps those bugs that hit my windshield fall into my bug collector. You should see my bug wing collection!

This is not popular yet, but some shops now have the ability to flush the electrons in your vehicle. Check with your local indy.

Make sure they do the battery as well, otherwise the old electrons in the battery will contaminate the car again. Don't let them talk you into a new battery, they can flush the old one and it will be as good as new for a fraction of the price of new.

I remember back when we ran tubes in our tires but I never figured out where the fallopian tubes went.

At tire discounters you get free Hydrogen inflation, Since hydrogen molecules are lighter than air, youll be able to get better gas mileage and more HP. Also, since Hydrogen molecules are smaller you have to pay us more to fill your tires everyweek.

Exclamation Help!!!

Reduced molar valance in my perpetual motion machine has introduced oscillation.
Do you think that synthetic frictionless oil would control the oscillation?

No, what you need is a Flux Capacitor with a non-oscillatory inductive loop.
you could try using some muffler lube, but don't try multi Hz radio grease as it allows all high frequency oscillations
