<VV> Corvair Tall Tales(?)

Even after the oil change, you would have to drive 50 miles on the freeway
to make sure you got rid of all the water!

I'm working part time at a parts store and had my vert parked outside during

a recent bout of nice weather.  Anyway, that inspired one of the customers 
to tell me a Corvair story from "back in the day" when service stations 
checked your oil, water, tires, etc.  The driver had to show the service guy

where the engine was located and then left him to his job.  When he was 
finished with his duties, the attendant reported back to the driver - well, 
the oil was good on the dipstick but it sure took a lot of water.

Yep - he got a free and immediate oil change out of that.
