maybe it's just an April Fools Day thing .. it's not like penetrating oil is expensive. one can lasts months. the most expensive one I've found is Kroil.. also regarded as the best one by far . Either size can lasts months and months. oh ...might mention ..I'm sure some people use the Freeze style juice too .. that works nicely sometimes. this one CRC Feeze-Off Super Penetrant. that stuff was particularly effective for removing the remains of broken off cylinder head studs after I drilled most of the broken off part out. Karl, you'll have to move up to a liquid-cooled Vanagon someday !
