Surprised at your age to need the third.

Also as thrifty as you are I would have thought you'd go for the generic version called micoxafaillin.

 

And if you're wondering if you can get it over the counter (w/out a prescription) you'd probably need to take 3 or 4.

Hope you're writing these down, they're gold ! Cracking myself up, SxS

Or just marry a young bride....

Maybe I'm in a silly mood, thought Air2air reply was funny.

The only thing I keep WD40 around for is starting small engines and outboards.

Kano Kroil and other Kano products are the only oils I keep for penetrants and long term coating for rust prevention. (does a great job dissolving rust)

Few years ago, I used Kroil to free up a stuck/locked up V12 in a Lamborghini. (We later pulled it for a rebuild, but got it running using Kroil)

 

Kano, it's the shisnits !

This is excellent advice from Sxsman.  Just tell the pharmacist "micoxafaillin."  That's the code word for the discount.  Tell her to request a price check for it too over the store's PA system.

If they're out, then some carefully aimed WD40 works wonders.  Overspray is easily handled with a match that cleanly burns off the excess.

Order and replace the flex hose to the slave as well. A new slave will work that hose more and since you're breaking open the system, it's the perfect time to change it out.

It works for the Master cylinder operating the clutch and doesn't get paid and might be negelected and abused, like yours, and allowed to rust. Robster, WD40 is not the answer, with that much rust you really need to replace it.

Glad it worked out for you.

I'm going to go buy stock in WD-40.
