    Thanks everyone. It's not the oil issue some mention. I will be contacting some auto ox specialists as suggested.

    It's even more annoying when it's someone who has been on the forum for the length of time that the OP has and has so many posts to his name. It's just bad manners, and really the only answer is to not respond any further.
