I googled Johnson rods see what they are but still can't figure out what exactly are they and what they have to do with oil leak?
Frammis plate looks like related to automatic transmission?
I have my OEM muffler changed to RPI do I still have replace the muffler bearings and where exactly are the located?
What is the blinker fluid and also where is it located?
Forgive me for all this questions but I am trying to Learn more every time.
Had me rolling! You guys are terrible. Johnson rods and blinker fluid

I apologize, Margal. Sometimes a dishonest mechanic will make up a part that he says needs to be replaced, just to get some extra cash out of an unsuspecting customer's wallet and into his. Items 7 through 10 are those parts.

Thanks for explaining all these terms. I am not a mechanic and never worked in garage and never heard such things in my 10 year English vocabulary. now I'll know for sure all these words.
