Before you read, I know the tube in the picture is an EVO tube, i was too lazy to go to the garage and get a Shovel tube.



Change out your stock early models, or make you late models leak proof.

From the quantities listed above, do you offer conveniently packed kits? I'm sure many would be interested.

Haven't really thought about it, I guess, because I buy them any way, I could throw some sets together. :confusion-shrug:

When I worked at a gas station, we would spread cat litter on oil spots and twist/crush it onto the concrete.
Seemed to get rid of the stain.
