10-4 on the superglue... again. Got it, thanks! Okie dokie, will do! Negative on the superglue. Its no good. It'll kill us and make our wives cheat on us. Its bad for the ozone, we understand. Dogs bark at superglue covered cuts, don't want that to happen. Superglue is the leading cause of SIDS. Off you go!

to much? i got plenty more

Back when I was wrenchin', I had a bottle of Pamprin in my box. I'd offer it to service writers or fellow techs if they were acting like little babies. General response was then "**** Off!".

***** hose and vaseline!

***** hose makes a very good filter. You can put it over the upper radiator inlet and clamp the hose over it. Yoou'd be surprised what it collects.

The Vaseline is for packing external oil pumps to prime them

Definitely a Buick thing with the Vaseline. I found out about that the hard way.

A bodyman friend of mine had superglue and Preparation H. He was on blood thinners and was constantly getting cut. That stuff has a vasoconstrictor in it. It stops bleeding pretty well.
