As the saying goes 'progress isn't everything'.
For a good ole oil can these days I buy those plastic squirt bottles like on

rockers, pushrods, springs etc before buttoning down the covers.
Chris Harris.............NZed.
Almost forgot:, To all off to Speedweek, have a good one, run safe, run
hard.............enjoy (usually not optional but automatic).
