You know just after posting that thing on prelubrication I thought "oh 
no, I know what I'm going to get back." It was already off when I had 
that thought...sure enough woulddn't you know. Anyway, I have no anger 
at this ky-jelly thing, it was a good joke, and I walked right into it.

See I read some years back about Accusump III and Preluber. Preluber, 
I'm not sure about Accusump, keeps the system under a constant 50 psi of 
pressure. Seems to me this would minimalize the 80% of engine wear which 
occurs during startup. This was years ago during my first Scirocco manic 
phase. I got out of touch with it for awhile, and just drove 'em. Now 
the second phase is upon me, thanks to some of you, and it could well be 
these things I knew about then were dated.
