oh just a hint.. about peanut oil... My old F250 truck had a big issue with electrical problems, took it to a superb Ford shop in Dallas.. They drove it home and around and experienced same issues, pulled the cab up off the frame finding the wires (cable between engine and transmission) had been partially eaten through (this was ten years ago).. But, after spending 1500 dollars, got it all fixed and it ran good (Until the Dallas Drug cartel stole it out of my front yard.. but that is another story). Mechanic said to me.. the wire bundle problem usually we only see in ranch trucks parked outside near brush etc. Yep. that was me. He said it was field mice or rats, gnawing on the cables. Looking into it further, I found out back then, Ford used peanut oil to lubricate the cable bundle to get it through the rubber grommet seals.. What do we use on mouse traps to catch mice - peanut butter!... I felt like a detective who had figured it out, but who knows what happened with my revelation to the service manager.
I was just listening to an RFK, Jr. interview where he commented that peanut oil is used in childhood vaccines.
