I get the "pleasure" on Tuesday.
No solid food for me after 6:00 PM today.
Tomorrow I'll drink Colon Blow In A Can.

This should be something that everyone should have in their storage compartment in case of emergency.

I already new about it... I run this daily, found it to help keep my engine cool..

And BTW... you do know I am like wayer smarter than you!!

The "Wife In A Can" comes in all different colors, shapes, and sizes but none of them have an IQ higher than 50.

Lucas? I think that's for British cars only.

I don't think you can use that in American made cars. It's different smoke in the Vette's. Using that will spell disaster.

I currently have my daughters 2003 VW Beetle up on the lift to do a trans filter/fluid change. I suspect this transmission's days are numbered.

Has anyone found the elusive "VW 09G transmission in a can" I have heard rumors of?

I'm so glad I live in Florida, as I don't need to change out the air in my tires for the winter air this time of the year.

IBTL!!

btw, you wouldn't need engine rebuild in a can if you just took off the lead from your wheel weights and put them in the gas tank so the free lead ions flowed through the gas and coated the valves and lubricated the top end, then add an extra shroud on the carb to compensate...
