Straps ; we don't need no stinkin straps!

Whoops, that stinks.
That's actually a mercury villager(ford), it was a partnership deal with mercury(ford)/nissan, it's the same van as the Nissan Quest.
I wonder what's wrong with it, those are great little vans, had 3 of them and towed a 6.5x12 steel trailer behind them for yrs, the main thing that went wrong is the front breaks and the ball joints. If they weren't all rust buckets up here now I'd buy another one. They don't have the forth door(drivers side slider) so that kinda stinks though.
Speaking of stinking, saw this over in Canada, they take crapping emergency's seriously .

I always liked those wheels, miss my old 99 f350 crew cab diesel.
Saw this over there too. I asked the guy leaning by the jeep if it was his, we both had a good laugh .

We need the snowpack, keep our rivers flowing in the summer. Our snow usually doesn’t stick around for more than a few days. I’ll be snowshoeing around later today.

I get that.
We got a good bit last week, but the warmer weather the last few days melted much of it, I've got mud and ice in the front yard today blah.
Here's the grand river not far from the house when it was real cold here still, it doesn't look the same today.

Here's the front yard out the window with the bota ready for some more action, need to move some logs with it in a little.

Here's today .

It looks like gas.
It smells like gas.
Im not sure if it tastes like gas.



But it sure as chit don't burn like gas.
Have a Chebby cruze on my hoist with a tank full of it, and it wont run.
I killed the fuel pump, hooked in our injector cleaner tank and it runs like a boss on known good fuel.

Of course all I was told was "Car dont run".
Come to find out after I figured it out, "car dont run after filling with fuel"..

Of course in the name of science we dumped a bit on the floor and lit it up.
It burned, but left behind a real weird black oily residue.

Diesel.


Its amazing how hard people try to shove that huge nozzle into their tank. Usaually they say it was hard to fill too!

Its bad enough we take pictures of us doing silly *s-word. A video just helps out the plaintiff!

 

[redline4]

Nope. Its not diesel. Not even a hint of diesel odor. According to the customer, they put in 10 gallons, that much dizzle would be noticeable.
It has that typical watery yellow color that is common on E-10 here. Tests at 8% ethanol.
