Re: [MBZ] ArcticQ - WVO burning
That is the theory. We have cars that may not survive extended abuse and metal fatigue could take them out. These are twenty year old cars at best and bound to have issues as yet unknown that we are gambling will not fail. I would rather have access to a part I want than be 900 miles away from the nearest parts shop or tire store. Back ups to the back up better chances of success.
