The left one out.... the tailgate down thing for pickups. I still laugh when I see people do that.

Does this mean I can take the wooden clothespins off my fuel line in the engine compartment?

:LOL:

Don't forget those turbo whatever they called them that you get to put inside you air cleaner and they are supposed to make the air swirl and that improves power and gas mileage. Haven't seen them advertised for a while, but with the prices going up like they are, I expect to see a big bunch of junk advertised.
Now I can't make your mileage any better, but for a modest fee I can send you a larger tank so you can go farther on a fill up. :LOL: :LOL:

That's why I am glad the Kirkham I recently got has a 42 gallon tank.:LOL::CRY:
