Gidget Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Can we please go back to the days when pumping 25 bucks worth of gas into your tank took more than 45 seconds? Quote
knelson Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Not if you're trying to get your money's worth. Quote
olyclimber Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 I suggest varying the pace through out the whole fueling process. Quote
minx Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Faster is usually more effective though. Â for whom? Quote
skykilo Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Are you talking about filling the gas tank OR Â getting an oil change??? Quote

knelson Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 I don't see where you get off in saying this! nor do I want to.  What? You want the link to the NPR article I heard the other day?  The guy they were interviewing from Olympia said that biodiesel was the way to go because it didn't require any expensive conversion of your existing vehicles/equipment. The only drawback he commented about was the fact that when it was burned, its exhaust still retained the smell of whatever the biodiesel was reclaimed from. If it came from a vat of oil used to fry up french fries, then the person following that vehicle would probably have a sudden craving for fries.  Quote

bunglehead Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 (edited) Well if that shit about the Biodiesel smelling like whatever it's reclaimed from is true, down here in Oregon they must be reclaiming it from diapers full of rotten shrimp and burning tires that sumo wrestlers took a dump on, cuz that shit STINKS. Â I'd rather smell gas fumes any day. Edited July 15, 2005 by bunglehead Quote
