At the store a few miutes ago, I saw a new Pepsi can. Their version of
the Stiudebakek S has been modified.
At one end, it comes to a point. At the other end it's twice the width
of the old one..

I liked the old one a lot better. Hated to see it go.

While NOT trying to start a political flame war, the facts are that the new
label came out right after Obama won the elections and that the label can be
said to closely resemble Obama's "symbol". And, their new ad is pushing the
"youth and change" angle. Anything to make a buck, I guess...
And to keep it somewhat on topic, I will be out in the rain under my 61,
hoping against hope that it is just some loose pan screws that is causing
the large oil leak.

Most likely, you will find loose screws but usually, replacing the pan
gasket, (A day's work for a shade tree hobbiest), does the trick. That
front crank seal can toss about copious amounts of oil too as can the
fuel pump. Rear seals themselves are seldom a problem.

Other trouble areas, distributor seal and of course the ol' valve cover
gaskets.
