I Googled it and found the one you're talking about. It is a
different packaging. The ordinary stuff is red and white, and has a
little house on the label, calling itself 'Household' oil. That's the
one sold everywhere, and the one I have that doesn't work. The one
you're talking about is BLUE and white, and depicts an electrical
motor and the weight very prominently. Now I know what to look for!
