6 to argue over the actual brand of engine oil.
4 to variously agree with them.
14 to share experiences of changing engine oil and how the oil could have been changed differently.
7 to caution about the dangers of changing engine oil and bare skin.
8 to post about the dangers of disposal of old oil.
1 to post about how his dad used it as rust-proofing.
1 to post about the problems of finding oil filters.
7 to post alternative filters.
1 to post a diagram of his method of fitting a remote filter and bypassing the original system.
1 to like his modifications and divert off into electric fuel pumps.
1 to agree and start on electronic ignition.
1 to very forcibly repeat their post about their favourite brand of engine oil and call others idiots.
Another 6 to condemn that 1 as incorrect, and rude.
1 to tell THOSE 6 to stop being idiots and see that he’s correct.
5 know-it-alls who claim to have been in the industry and that modern oil harms engines.
1 industry professional to inform the group that the oil is better than it used to be.
1 to recommend a particularly rare oil, tell horror stories about engines blowing up, then reveal he races cars at 1000 mph every weekend and it’s not relevant to everyday use.
49 to post jokes and thread drifts about blonde moments.
2 to post that this page is not about blonde moments and to please take their discussion elsewhere.
1 to agree with them.
11 to defend the posting to this page saying that we all have blonde moments when changing oil and therefore the posts are relevant here.
24 to discuss the merits of synthetic vs mineral oil.
1 to post a link about how American scientists are making car oil out of almonds and cow pats, but which is not relevant to Club cars.

2 to report the post or PM an admin because someone said "f÷×$" in reply.
4 to say "Didn't we go through this already a short time ago?".
1 to say "Do a search on engine oil before posting questions about engine oil."
1 Admin to black mark the engine oil posters who took it all too seriously and got personal.
1 late arrival to comment on the original post 6 months later and start it all over again.
20 to give up on the forum and go off to their own garage.
1 person announces they are leaving the group over the engine oil arguments.
1 to reply back that this isn't an airport, so no need to announce your departure.
