Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Use a mixer to blend together the eggs, sugar, butter, vanilla, lemon extract and lemon juice in a medium bowl.

Pour wet ingredient into the dry ingredients and blend until smooth. Add oil and mix well.

Pour batter into a well greased 9x5-inch loaf pan. Bake at 350ºF for 45 minutes or until a toothpick stuck into center of the cake comes out clean.
