ONLY ONE guy gets a little premium with his regular, no one else untill the ONE sap gets a little regular with his premium! And you may see me tonight With an illegal smile J. Prine

When I filled up my truck yesterday, I noticed that the hose was anchored several feet above the pump on a metal framework, and then routed all the way back down into the cabinet. It was at least 10 feet long, maybe more. That's probably approaching a gallon of stored fuel. '08 America Blue/White; Custom Headlamps, Custom Lowers, Clearview 20", Bafflectomy

Then we would look like wackos when we try to get them to pay for the 1 gallon of fuel. OR we could wait around until someone gets the good stuff and come in behind them to get ours. For the desperate you could put in about 3 ounces of kerosene to bring up the flash point. I did this on a rattling Harley and it does work. http://www.gnttype.org/techarea/misc/octanebooster.html All in good fun.
