Has anybody ever noticed all of the cliches in most science fiction space adventures?
1) Every race is superior to us lowly humans.
2) Every alien has a short single name of 5 letters or less.
3) Every alien (to us) race has some sort of "super" powers. Like being able to use telekinesis to move things or able to throw electrical bolts?
4) In every case, other folks from other planets always address the humans in proper English. We cannot speak or understand their language but they have perfect mastery of ours.
5) Against all odds, superior weaponry of our opponents, superior propulsion systems, and all of their "magical" wizardry, the humans ALWAYS prevail. The humans always find that weakness of their adversaries and exploit it to save the day.
After watching enough of the science fiction, it all becomes so much the same that it actually becomes boring.

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.
