    My last time using GC :(

    Just bought the last 3 bottles of Green from the Seguin , Tx AZ. They also had about a case of really old USA 0-30. But I think that is the last of the green in my area. Unless I run across an uncharted AZ in the Ghetto.

    got some GC going to try it, Orlando, FL

    Great luck getting the Green. You won't be disappointed. Always carry a quart with you in case you run into the Royal Purple guy or some other lubricant sideshow with a bearing tester.
