My Dumb Present Owner moment

Share this page

Glad that worked out! I had the plastic accordian extension on my gas can fall into my tank. I was lucky to have my mechanical claw fingers nearby after deafening my wife with a line of explitives. My tank fishing only lasted a few minutes... but I think I got lucky the tank was only half full.
 
Forget it, put the cap on and drive it. That plastic is not going anywhere nor will it hurt anything.
 
Thanks everyone, now to get Bugsy out on the highway and see if my mid adventures resolved the cooling issue. Driving around town seems Temp gauges stays at 7:30-8:00 position, if I get it up and push it I get to N /6:00 or perhaps 5:30. If I can stay there at speeds quite happy. A full report later today.
