Is it me or do I sense a little bit of attitude here? Lets see, free site free and really good info and advise from many fine people. Of course you will get the occasional troll with a wire up his a$$....still seems like a good deal though

There are quite a few forum members in the age bracket of 20-40, you are not a rare breed. Don't take that the wrong way, I am always glad to see someone with their original color hair who is interested in the old stuff.
I have been on Fordbarn for about 5 years, never had a problem with anyone. The only negativity I ever got was when I supported a brief movement to modernize the old Fordbarn format to what we have today. Thankfully Ryan took control and I think most would agree this site just continues to get better.
FWIW, If you take the time to write a post with clear, concise meaning and use correct spelling and punctuation, it will be hard for people to judge your age. If you are lazy, and don't bother to capitalize words or use correct punctuation and spelling, people will think that you are a punk who learned how to type by using a cell phone, and their responses may be equally effortless. Garbage in, Garbage out.

30 model A,
Bill will NEVER put you down or embarras you intentionally, if he happens to screw up, just get on his CASE! I know him pretty well.
When he used to screw up, Chief would tell him, "I buy you books, send you to school, and you're still STUPID! Bill won't do that! Bill W's Ghost.

Ho, ho..Dusty that's rich !
Mabe as a prerequisite to 'trolling' this mundane model a site...everybody has to send a year...nah, a week over on the Hokey Assed Message Board or whatever HAMB stands for ! Whew, I lasted one day..long time back
I find that ALL here, well mabe a couple exceptions, have wonderful
contributions, whether it's restoration skills/experiences/knowledge/mirth/parts/performance/whatever!
Difference is what makes this place enjoyable. Think ...of having to have an exchange with yourself and everyone being just like you..FUN,eh
A thicker skin may come with age, but you don't have to be aged to winnow the chafe from the grain.

This thread demonstrates the beauty of the site. Wide range of ages(45 here), a little humor, advice metered out and a lot of knowledge(aka 'A' experience).
Sometimes when age is brought up in a thread it turns south a bit. It shouldn't matter. Treat all with respect(unless they're just asking for it) and if you don't have anything nice to say, hold off on tapping the 'submit reply' button.

Thanks to all that have shared their experience over the years and have put up with us newbies from time-to-time.

Now back to that oil question............
