Never mind.  <grin>

Finally found 4 Qt. of Red Line MT-90. Guy at Lordco said "no" on
phone. Got there and there it was. Shees. (and now I see why some
might balk at the price..... though $18.xx qt. not bad) Still need 1
more qt., but thanks to BTDT, close to done.

I look forward to less of the "subtle noise"!

Neil.
