It's obvious that there is considerable controversy about synthetic lubricants on this forum. Although I'm a relitively new member of this forum I believe that MOST of the folks who frequent the threads here are reasonably intelligent. I make that assumption based on the overall use of good spelling and grammer, something sorely missing on other forums I frequent.

Several years ago I came upon a great little publication for auto enthusists. I was immediatly attracted because their monthly did not use advertising of any sort and provided excellent information. After printing some articles about synthetic lubricants, by popular demand they eventually put the whole series together into a single article and titled it "Battle of the synlubes". I haven't the ability to transfer the publication to this forum. For those of you truely interrested in knowing the TRUTH about synthetic lubricants, go to a website called NUTZ and BOLTZ and for about $10 they will send you the afore mentioned article.

If there are any members near Ocala Florida who have the ability to transfer a 22 page document to this forum, I will be glad to provide my publication for that purpose so everybody doesn't have to go throught the process of acquireing their own copy.

 

Does anybody have the ability to scan and post this document?

 

I'll do it if you will send it to Mason, Tn.

 

That will require some trust. I'm a former Marine (1965-1969) and it appears you are to, or will be. I'll send it to you if you give your word that you will return it immediatly. I'll need you snail mail addy.

 

If you PM me when you post it with a link, I can move it to the DIY section so it doesn't get lost in the posts.

 

Depending on the number of pages and whether they are loose or in a book, I can scan, ocr, and proof the pages in one day. Once I have done that I will mail it right back. I have PM'd my address and phone number to you.

I will put them into a html and document file so everybody can download or view it if they want. I have a site I can host it and will provide TCSTD with the link.

 

That sounds like the way to go here.

Thanks

Replied to your PM. It's 23 pages of text & graph's printed on the front surface only, with a removable binder which will make it quick and easy.

Thanks for volunteering to assist.

 

Great site; lot's of good refference material.
