Start at 4 glugs.....

So 4 gl:1 gallon, got it.
I just want to be sure not to strip another stihl worm gear this winter .

I've been using the same stuff for a while too. Works pretty gooder. Watcha using to thin it?

Diesel fuel

[huskihl]

Doesn't take much to go from honey to 30w. About a cup per gallon

I used a half empty quart of atf I had laying around last winter. Seemed to work alright. Probably used about as much as you did Kevin. Diesel/kero would probably be cheaper though.

I’m still waiting on the gifted group at work to figure out everyone’s work schedule for September turnaround. It’s refreshing to have young, no children, college views on how I can better utilize my time to help out on something they’ve never been part of.

It’s funny as I get older how experience is viewed as a problem now. I did everything I could to tag along with the old ornery bastards. I just wish I had more time with the dirt bowl era so I learned to save better.

@huskihl Kevin, what kind of drive time am I looking at? Can’t leave home until Friday morning.

How far you from @Canadian farm boy ? Seems like he had about a 6 hr drive?

 

[cus_deluxe]

Damn, just saw ur in manitoba. My guess is every bit of 12 hrs...
Edit: google told me almost 16 hrs...

20 or more from him. If Inwas driving to his place I would come through the States to get there. Kevin will know a real time, he’s made the drive a bunch of times to come hunting up here.

One does not drinking before crossing the border at Pembina/Emerson. One drinks after they let you through. Bastards all of them...

18 hours with minimal fuel stops

We always came up/down through Tolstoi from Thief River Falls. Only went through the one directly south of Winnipeg one time. Didn't like that border crossing too much. Too many covered areas to park trucks under while you wait for them to do a full cavity search.

Sadly can’t see that happening this year.
