Mac-

Step 1. Start the vehicle on fresh gas, then switch to the treated stuff.
One problem at a time. If the vehicle won't run on the treated gas, but it
will on fresh gas, well, winter is on the way, and somebody will be able to
use the gas for some sort of out door heating or something. Use it to thin
out 1500 gallons of heating oil, or make the worlds largest tennis ball
launcher out of 6 foot sewer pipe and laundry stolen from somebody's clothes
line.

It will take the whole 150 gallons to get the truck to your place, and a lot
more besides.

I will be interested in seeing how this works. I have to drain a couple of
tanks myself.

Somebody just gave me a BC162 shorty that needs the tanks drained. It also
needs a BD or BG series engine dropped into it. I think I know where to find
one for 400 bucks that has a 68 travelall attached to it.... more gas to get
rid of...
