[DML] Speaking of Oil..

[Marc Levy <malevy_nj@xxxxxxxxx>]

I joined the LEO club this past week for a local car
show event where they invited an oil engineer to
discuss various oil related topics with us.

One of the interesting things he said was that newer
oils tend not to have as much tolerance for engine
blow-by because modern engines run cleaner.  He
suggested using a "Diesel" oil for older gasoline
engines because they have more ability to withstand
the blow by.  I think he said they have more zinc??
