I'm not sure it was always so. I remember a magazine ad for either the MG 1100, or more likely, Austin America, that spoke of alcohol. It made a little joke about alky in the suspension, then stated that seriously, folks, we put a toxic dye in the suspension alcohol or we would have to pay a USA liquor-import tariff. phile@pwcs.stpaul.gov -- Login name: phile In real life: Philip J Ethier Phone: 298-5324
