<VV> Friction modifier additive for engine and transmison oils

[J. R. Read]

I'm in complete agreement on that one.  It also helps to keep rubber parts - 
like pump diaphragm and accelerator pump cups - moist as a protection 
against the ethanol in modern gas which will destroy those same rubber parts 
if they are allowed to dry out - like during winter storage.
Later, JR
