    Stupid Question

    I have a bunch of really expensive Motul oil Full ester stuff in my trunk from last season though the winter it most likely froze and thawed 40 times.

    Is it still good to use in my racebike?

    Re: Stupid Question

    New oil ~$50
    New engine ~$more

    Why risk it.

    It's garbage. Leave it with me next time you're over and I'll reuse, um, recycle it for you.

    Re: Stupid Question

    It depends, did the oil freeze solid?

    If it did, you had oil-ice. It's like engine-ice, but not water-wetter.

    Pick up some oil de-icer and you'll be fine to mix it.

    What happens to an elephant in the rain?

    It gets wet.

    What happens to oil left out in the cold?

    It gets cold.

    I remember reading (more than once) that the freezing point for most motor oil was like, -40F or some shit like that...

    She was the last time I saw her. I had her in the trunk and she might have frozen and thawed a few times. She might be no good. What do you guys think?

    Re: Stupid Question

    Should this thread be moderized? As a mod, I feel the need to pass judgement on it.

    Csmutty made a joke about sex I think. That is ironic and humorous.
