Not So Pro 3

Blackness is usually what they call asphaltene contamination.
Brown snotty are usually algae contamination.
Both conditions take a different treatment to combat the effects.
I'm sure Larry can elaborate.
With the Sulphur being gone as a lubricant you could use a lubricate additive as long as you don't have an SCR/DEF afterteatment system.

I just mix up some garden Sulphur in a quart of diesel and add it to my tanks.

They probably used the bed of the mega cab.

Interesting. I do treat regularly with Amsoil diesel additives. That has also helped the idling issue somewhat.

Good morning fellas. Claiming to be getting a day reprieve from rains.
We've gotten 5.35" of accumulation since last Saturday morning.
OH great idea, wash the car, sure to get more PDQ.

Too much ketchup and not enough hot sauce.

Ketchup doesn’t belong on breakfast.

What's the consensus of the bigger CC brush cutters?
Like a Stihl 550? Are they worth even a small portion of their price?
Are they as heavy as they sound at over 20#'?

Never used one. How big of stuff are you needing to cut down? I have a Husky 525L that I muffler modded and I mostly use it for string trimming, but I have a brush blade for it. If I keep the blade sharp, it will destroy stuff up to 1.5" pretty easily.

I have a FS250 that I use for a brush cutter, and a pole saw. The damn thing is a beast.

The shot of steroids and the z pack are already making me feel less crappy too.

I'm on my third bp med now. Hopefully this is "the one".

I take a cocktail of 3 BP meds. We seem to have it right for now.
It is amazing how the right little biddy pill will make you feel and keep us grumpy old farts alive.
