RE: [ST] Oil

[Brad Turner <bturner@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Jay,

Have you considered asking the manager of your local the Mobil station to
order you a case? I'm not sure how Mobil works their franchises but I can
get my local 76 station to order just about anything from 76 up to and
including a 35 gallon barrel of 110 leaded race fuel. My assumption is that
your local Mobil station should be able to special order products from their
distributor as well. You might want to consider giving this a try. Call a
station and ask to speak to the owner/manager and see what they say.

Just my two cents.

I also have  not been able to find 15-50 red top at more than one Mobil
station
I have tried while on the road in New England. To make matters worse, I am
in
eastern, Massachusetts and can no longer find Walmarts with the 15-50 red
top
Mobil one in 1 quart or 5 quart containers.  I have been to 8 in the last
month
looking for it to no avail.

The stuff seemed to disappear from the shelves just about the time of the
"Mobil
oil reformulation" thread that happened this spring.

Anybody ever try buying it from a distributor in Pails or a Barrel?  I'm
thinking that with 3 cars and 6 bikes in the family it might be worth it!
