It's been discontinued in Canada...

Check the clearance counter at you local PartSource. They're owned my Canadaian Tire and were clearing it out.

If you still can't find any, I stockpiled a some and could sell you a few bottles...

But to get any quantity, you'll have to order from the US.

I'm thinking of hauling a drum back next time I'm sounth of the border

I have heard you can use ATF instead of MMo with the same results.

Yeah, it's a fuse. I can't remeber which one, but it's under the dash on the driver side.

Not really. For a flooded engine, you can use ATF, but MMO is better. Plus you can run it regularly in the gastank to help keep the fuel system and comustion chamber clean.
