OPPPSSS!!!!!
Every time I try to help I stick my foot in my mouth. I meant to
type (?) The Detroit Diesel Series 6o and 50 engines require Mobil Delavon,
errrrr ..........I didn't intend to imply the 2 strokes aka: 53/71,110
series required Delavon. Every time I get it right in my mind I never seem
to type it all out. Some little itty bitty bit stays inside and screws me
up. I say
again.....................................................OOPPPPSSSSS!!!!!
I want an M-35A2!!!!!
Soon as I can get my foot out of my mouth.
