|  Wolf's Head 10W40 SM, SL/CF Oil
I ran across this oil today after having not seen Gas/Diesel combo oil in years. It was on sale for $1.49/Qt. at a local hardware chain.

Some specs.
W-H was one of the original "PA Crude" oils, and a lot of old-timers swore by it; I think it's owned by Amalie or someone, now.

I used to use Wolfs Head oil in everything I owned that needed oil, this was many years ago.
I haven't seen the stuff sense the early 80's.

I haven't seen Wolf's Head Oil either since the 70's or 80's. I used to use it. too. It was good stuff back then. I have no idea if it's any good, now.

About ten years ago I was told by an auto parts store that Wolf's Head is made by Pennzoil. | |

It used to be sold by Central Tractor in York PA. Haven't seen it anywhere else.

They have had it in Sam's club by me for at least 15 yrs now,I love the Wolfs head ATF,its cheap,and the additive and bright red color of it makes it easy to see the fresh color on the trans dipstick after a fluid/flush or change.
