""just asking in an online forum shouldn't make anyone think they have all of the necessary information for something like this."
Unfortunately,...... That's what Does Happen.....
Just as an example, I happen to be an advocate of Dry winter storage,... Rather than dumping Anti-Freeze into the motor,+ then into the lake.....
There's a fella over at iboats whom I explained the process to,....Along with the "Gotchas" that go along with it,......
The following spring, last spring to be exact,.... He posts that his engine was Frozen,+ Busted the Block,.....
And,...... It's My(Bondo's) Fault,......
Upon further questioning,... He admits that he Just pulled the drains,+ DIDN'T rod them out with a nail, or screw..... He said that Plenty of water exited the block,.... Obviously, that's Not the Case......
Sooo,.... Now he's posting around the web with a slogan Very similar to mine, which at every board but this 1 is,...."Any Grease is Better than No Grease at All".....
Only in his, it's Antifreeze instead of Grease....
Now I'm the No Good Sumb!tch,.......'cause He couldn't follow directions.......
Jim,.... Again I'm sorry for calling you out on this,.... But I don't think you give yourself enough credit,.....
Many people not only look up to the knowledgeable posters on these forums,....(which you Are 1)
Some people take Our Word as Gospel Truth.....
I Respect your Words,+ can See that you are Very Knowledgeable in these matters,......
Again,...... No disrespect intended......."
