Remember mini-bikes? They were popular about 20 years ago. A kid in our neighborhood got one from her father who lived in another state. It had a 5 horsepower Briggs engine and would go about 40 miles per hour. She suddenly became very popular with the neighborhood boys. (She was 14) Several of the boys had mini-bikes, but her's was faster. She tore around the neighborhood for about two weeks and then the engine blew up. You guessed it. Nobody ever told her she had to put oil in the darned thing. I saw her the other day diving a car. She looked older and wiser, but still I wondered......

I have to change oil sometime in the next few days. Let's see now....the car, the truck, two motorscooters, the lawn mower, the tiller. That's about 13 quarts and two filters.
