Lots of rubbernecking at my car out on the road, but ONLY by males of a certain age; women couldn't care less but that could be because their heads are stuck to cell phones and they are lost in conversation.

Smokey Yunick says any oil that gets into the combustion chamber causes detonation.
All three of these things indicate oily stuff as having lower detonation resistance. I'm gonna go with U of W, B&S, and Smokey being right.
