It's like buying Pop Tarts. Kelloggs brand are normally $2.18 for a box of 8 and the generic brand can be anywhere from $1.25 on up. Have you ever compared the taste of a true Kelloggs Pop Tart to a grocery chain generic????? I'll pay the extra for the real deal.

I don't get it. Do the Pop Tarts go in the gas tank or the crankcase?

They go in the intake, thru the crankcase, and out the gas tank.... Even better when you toast them before the intake!

Aha! That's it!

When he said sub he wasn't talking about a sandwich. Think about the word submarine for a moment. Humm, maybe now you understand the meaning of sub?
