Don't even worry about the 'drip SWAT squad.' Friend of mine, being
environmentally responsible, used a modern degradable friendly soap to clean up
the oil drips. Unfortunately in the gutter the soap looked exactly like
coolant.
Those sirens were the HazMat team and the bill he got for the response was huge
and real even though the environmental threat was only in the imagination of a
neighbor. That yellow tape is expensive when delivered this way.

Subject: All a-flutter?
Here's one that has had me intrigued for some time. At just about
4,000RPM, if I hold it steady, the power seems to 'flutter.' I suppose
it could be the botched SU rebuild that left some leakage around the
shafts. Has anyone else ever noticed this effect, and determined the
source?
Horrors. Bought a new house. Read the CC&Rs (Covenants, Conventions,
and Rules) and found "prohibited: vehicles that leak oil or other fluids."
What other kind of car is there? I sure hope the drip SWAT squad doesn't
batter down my garage door to imprison my babies.
