Hi Robert, That is kind of funny. I had a similar experience in the past. I was helping a friend replace a radiator. When i was done pulling it i had him repeat to me what he needed. for the life of him he couldn't remember antifreeze. When he was Half way to the store, he called me to ask once again what was the fluid called that he needed. I then told him to just ask the parts guy for radiator fluid, He said ok and said that was easier to remember. When he got back to the house, he told me that the guy at the store was laughing at him when he asked for radiator fluid. I didn't really understand why the guys had such a kick out of the expression, because it is totally accurate. Roger C Bachelder 3rd [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The second is a doughnut for the space saver spair tires. And last I admit sounds hoky but I got tung tied one time and called Anti freeze "Radiator fluid" My cousin in law will not let me live that one down. It is not the proper term but it absolutely is an accurate description. Robert [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
