Re: Castrol R

["David F. Darby" <darby@tri-lakes.net>]

Many years ago, we mixed the bean-based Castrol with gas for two-stroke
racing motorbikes. It definitely burned then and its distinctive aroma
permeated everything around the race meets. As I recall, we seemed to have a
lot fouled spark plugs when running the stuff. I remember starting cold
engines with a hotter spark plug and then changing to a colder plug once the
thing was warmed up and breathing properly.
