[AT] oil pressure/filter

[Dave Merchant]

It seems the quality of filtration would depend greatly on the brand of 
T.P. you used.

There is an obsession with softness now, where years ago it was just really 
cheap recycled newspaper.

I'd worry about newer stuff shedding lint, just as it can if you use it to 
wipe your dipstick (the one in the engine).

A few years ago we bought 1 package of Charmin, and it jammed up the line 
to the septic.
