I thought you might understand the parallel.

........to the Grongy store to get some fish and chips and they'd watch the stars come out. Turbo shed a tear when he flew over the scarred landscape. The pothole run finished at Parkes, so Turbo had time to drop in to the magnificent Cowra Airport. Some say it's picture perfect because it was built built by the Japanese Prisoners in WW2. Nobushi had told Turbo that, but he also said he had king hit General Macarthur, so you never knew when to believe him. He told Turbo they'd built a small Tori Gate in the southeast corner. After parking the C210 near the Hars shed, he walked to the corner and sure enough there it was with a small carved plaque sayins "XXXX THE GUARDS" and signed "Nobushi Sugatao." When he got back he found a tall old guy with an oil can working on the 210's aileron hinges. "When do we have to start rebuilding this one?" he asked, and Turbo had to bite his tongue. The old guy gave him a tour of the HARS collection, attack helicopters you had to be double jointed to get into ("Mostly they didn't get out of them"), the surveillance aircraft that searched for MH370 (with hand over mouth, "The Captain sold it to Punjab Airlines and everyone was given a free tour of India and a free ticket home if they shut up about it." and so on. Turbo had to stay the night in a Motel and leave the next morning - they don't make too many like that old guy and ..................

The most spectacular version of this I've even heard of came from a Bull Dozer owner who was cutting a dam for me. I was showing him my International BTD3 and he noticed I had a single grease can with gun. He pointed to his Cat D7 which towered over the old BTD and said "I used to think Caterpillar were over the top with their one specification here, another there, another somewhere else so I just used the one can. It wrecked the bull gear; cost me $45,000.00. Now I just send a message with the latitude and longitude and "grease the dozer" and a Cat truck comes out aand does it - a lot cheaper.

......a bit like OT, a superlative bull dozer driver, but not tall enough to get into a Cat D11T........nttiawwt. Turbo had been referring to the big grove of Murray Pines at The Grong whih used to be very handy for .....................

....sawn off...................

.....the Grongy Rock Band at the last BNS Ball. Not many people know that GRB were neck and neck in the Rock industry with LRB but the GRB guys would rather race each other to put the wheat crop in than sing. Sadly since that era the population of Grong Grong has been falling off. Once, famous people like Wheels Magazine's Bill Tuckey would drive down from Sydney with the latest Car release to test it on Grong Grong Straight, with Turbo tagging along to hold the spoon. The spoon was a switch held on a long stick. Turbo would put his spoon under the rear tyre, and Tuckey would slam on tnrottle. There's nothing more painfull than your spoon being skun by tyrespin. That's all gone now; Sex Education and Birth Control handouts in the Primary School ended the flow of BNS partners that taught Cappy all he knowns, and Turbo is still under a Notorised agreement never to set foot within five miles of Grong Grong. Worse, On the 210 pothole flight up theNewell a few days ago Turbo was setting up for the clover leaf so the cameras could get the exact Newell surface, he found Grongy or as the millenials call it "The Grong" has been bypassed! The highway now makes a big curve where Cappy and Turbo used to park; what could be worse than that.............................

Refer to the small print. You as a user might think all those engines were identical. I was doing some research on the V6 Holden a while back and the one model has had multiple changes, some supplier, some material, some different machining etc. Mostly to improve the engine. It wouldn't surprise me at all if the latest iteration of the 912 has the same charts. In this process not every change gets the results that initial testing indicated. So the manufacturer issues Advice notice from a break point. The oil company may have issued an update in the formula which affects the older engine. I would normally phone the service department if I wanted to contravene the Manufacturer Advice. You wouldn't think so when it was supplying so many 912s, however we're talking about one phone call here; not the end of the earth. Just a matter of interest; if the manufacturer has your details linked to tghe engine, you would normally get information relating to your engine direct based on the oil manufacturer discussions with the engine manufacturer.They usually get their heads together first on the degree of the problem, and what the owner needs to do, then decide who is going to communicate.

.......the atmosphere was so "full" that the slightest spark would result in an explosion. Turbo held his nose to the tiny observation port [avref] and Cappy squeezed his head out into the bom bay, and that's the way they flew home to .......

........so that they could look out on the world like Cappy does. One guest asked why there was sloshing water all round the round window, and although we didn't want to, we had to explain that was the gin.................

.......mission went on, all the better for the inspiring, but moth eaten statue of Cappy drawing thousands of visitors a day. The kebab stalls, Dim Sim trolleys, and Taco throwers could hardly keep up with the demand. In fact, .......................

...........Cappy was saved. As we've all seen, as usual, Cappy took the credit, so Turbo got even by standing on the Pub counter and telling everyone the drinks were on Cappy all night. Cappy became the town hero, so that one backfired, and the town Council toward dawn were called to order by the Mayor and resolved to build a statue of the "brave and resourceful Captain!", The world is safe because one of the councillors was an artist, and decided she would carve the statue. Turbo has seen the 17 sheets of paper with balloons, suggestive words, and attempts at the human body. When every one woke up the next day...................

.........Turbo had to take over. This was difficult at the time because he had contracted to count the number of potholes between Melboure and Brisbane up the Newell. The government had specified a fast cross country aircraft, so Turbo quoted and outrageous price and won the contract, and had to pull the old Cessna 210 out of the hay shed, hose the possum crap out as best he could climb to 500' agl and count the black holes. The first thing he noticed was the flooding all over the paddocks and creeks; global warming had finished. He was also tasked to tell them which vehicles were causing the propblem, so he set the old SLR with the AI module to "Only take photos of Caravans and adjust the shot to be near a pothole, oh and make all the 4WDs blow smoke." The C210 is back in the shed now; good job done again! After reading Cappy's pointed comments, Turbo realised he had doubled up, so he hit "Screw Up 4" which included a reassuring statement for Cappy whose panys would be sprayed by now. He couldn't remember where he was supposed to be, and the operation became serious...........................

Yes they do, and we sit there reading it and wonder why they can't handle the critical advice we've just offered. The manufacturer is legally responsible for the safety of his product and advice. If he didn't give the advice he'd be paying for any failures. If he makes a statement like this one and someone decides he know better, he pays. I use Bosch on race engines. We have both had good experience, but let's say a manufacturer has screwed up when he decided the locations of the spark plug holes and the plugs are masked/not allowing full chamber performance. The manufacturer searches for months and finally finds a Temu X22 which has a very long nose allowing full power, he'll say Temu X22 MUST be used. He knows the rreason; we don't. It would be nice if the manufacturer said "Because we stuffed up the design and got the oil gallery positions wrong, the only oil that didn't result in a blowup was xxxxxxx."

All of that is speculation or anecdotal. I'm not saying none of it is true; I'm saying the statement is standard operating procedure for engine manufacturers, and is usually a last resort, because competitors usually have enough employees common to both companies who know the inside story, and the competitor can attack the product. You can't make people follow manufacturers' advice but it doesn't matter because the person who thought he knew better will be wearing it.

When the manufacturer uses active words "like essential" and backs it up with :"to avoid engine damage" that's a clear message to most people. It means there is some issue with the design that required a solution and the solution was resolved by this action. I've been involved in quite a few of them and seen the carnage when old Dad decides he'snot changing his ways.

.......left side; he was irritated that CIA made him share a VR with Cappy who insisted on the right-side optics, because on some occasions where AWACS were giving target instructions you could hear a raucus "yibbidy, YIbbidy, YIBBIDY!" and on more than one occasion Tiger 1 had been asked "WHAT IS GOING ON THERE!". All Turbo could say was "nothing".................................

......the Drifter III Drone, an iteration of that ageless aircraft that was aerobatic (you could spin in from 10,000 '), and economical on fuel thanks to the Bluehead which had auto stop when it was pointed for home. We can't tell you anything about Drifter III because we were told to keep the name secret. Turbo gave the Bluehead full throttle until there was nothing on the gauge but the maker's name. The D III, with a load of ten tiny Twister titanium turbine powered attack drones, is not a very resonsive aircraft, handling roughly like a J230 with four big men in it, slowly ....................

.............two Glocks (which was a condition of Agent Doubtfire who was looking for some sport.) Turbo wasn't happy about this because he knew where it was going to lead but the gutless Langley just ordered Turbo to "observe" which he did...............

....he should help her practice some moves in case she was accosted by one of those Isis fidels. You only had to look at the Isis wives to know what ..................

......embarrassed, knowing Doubtfire couldn't catch both of them and Cappy was tethere. In a few strides he was down a sidestreet running for the Highway and looking for a Kenworth, even if it was an SAR. There was one coming now driven by what looked like a Yowie, but was Raj fom Delhi. He gunned the big one tonne Cummins engine (Turbo is currently working on a project to take a tonne out of a semi trailer but at the moment removing the Cummins is still on the drawing board being worked on. They were soon heading north, and Sergeant Doutfire was looking Cappy up and down. Cappy nearly crushed his Rosary beads ..................

.......pretended...............

.......belt Cappy in the buttocks which were glowing white from the Wagga frost. At that moment his father's advice came to him "Never point a rifle at anyone, Gavin" and he wished he'd never been playing around with the 303 on the Khyber; they were short enough on ammo as it was. Turbo was about to fling the stop stick at the glowing white mounds when Cappy screamed "I'LL LET YOU FLY THE 230!!!!!!" Turbo had no intentions of ever setting foot in that aircraft. It had taken him seven years to build and he'd plagued Wreck Flying every day asking never ending questions, like "how do you mix polyester putty to stick the undercarriage on?" or " if you pull the head bolts off to see inside, how do you put them back again?" and after being given the correct information would plague the site abusing anyone unlucky to be online repeating advice he'd got from the local publican. There was no doubt something was going to let go, so Turbo had never raised the question of a "ride". Turbo was trapped. His instinct was still to administer the spikes of the stop sticks, but he felt sorry for Cappy bolted to the stocks by that evil woman............who had just appeared around the corner. "What are you two up to!!!!" she yelled, totally misunderstanding what she was seeing..................................

........evidence we can use in our duties." This was not the old Doubtfire, and the heavy make up, neat uniform, clipped NPOL speech and lack of the usual expletives which some Waggans have described as like a tree chipper. Clearly she was looking for the Police Chief job. It didn't work; Turbo had put a mini-bug in the first tomato, the remnants of which were stuck to Cappy's forehead. Turbo sneaked around to the Station and grabbed the spike stick from the back of her van..............

I think he's come unhinged.
