Opinions are like your posterior.......everyone has one, and the other guy's usually stinks.
I won't go into what letters follow my name or my background, but I have been turning a wrench for over 40 years (most of it by choice, not by necessity). Grew up on a farm, and now I work in a suit every day. I have found a lot of sound advice on this board, and like anything else, you have to "work" through the crap to find the gold. A lot of good advice from years of experience, and a lot of good advice from sound scientific facts.
my background started as "real life" experience from my Dad and my Grandfather. After a few years of education, I actually understood the science behind their experience. Too many times in my professional life do I see people draw conclusions from observations that are correct from the perspective of "what", but are totally clueless on the "why". In the end, for the purposes of this board, I am not sure it matters...............
and I mean all of this in a constructive way. The beautiful thing about the internet is, that if you disagree with someone, you can just log off. Almost a perfect world.....................

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
