I thought he was pulling our collective chain.

Everyone knows you don't use oil in carburetors.

I'm now using Valvoline VR-1 racing oil, 20W-50. (NOT synthetic, tho)
It's loaded with those nasty things they don't put in "auto-grade" oil any more; lotsa ZINC, etc for hot running engines with pushrods.
