Technology has caught up

Because I purchase tires for my model T from Jegs High Permormance. (They have a good shipping discount.) I get emails all the time. I was
looking through the latest ad because a freind is looking for a deal on a crate engine for his Elcomino. I found they sell a universal engine diaper.
Isn't technology wonderful?

Craig, I worked for Kimberly Clark, mfg'r of items like Kotex and Huggies and learned how effective a diaper with SAM granules can be for absorbing oil leaks. My SIL had a an Infinity with a rear main leak and at every oil change it got a new diaper also. Easy fix for an expensive repair. I wrap a narrow piece of Kotex around the clutch pedal shaft and secure it with a tie wrap which absorbs a pesky leak on my T!
I carry an absorbent mat under my seat to put down when parking in oil drip free zones.

Only problem is you never know when the T is out of Oil?!?
