I would love me some Alexander Keiths right about now.
ekpolk said:Hard to characterize the odor. It's not as awful as the ST stuff (I had to sneak a whiff at WM, given the comments I'd read in the other thread), but I'm not sure "sweet" is how I'd describe it. Stronger, and different from any oil I've messed with before. The Sta-bil bottle I'm using as a dispenser is in my trunk, tightly capped, x2. When you open the trunk, no doubt the stuff is in there. Thankfully, that odor has not migrated into the passenger compartment.
I bought a gallon of the synthetic TC-W3 tonight and it has a very distinct, sweet, ester smell to it. The synthetic blend smells more like diesel fuel and Vaseline. I think the synthetic blend contains hydrocracked petroleum instead of esters.
