    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Oh quit blubbering and whip out that rat-tail! :twisted:

When you are done, you will be able to pass more gas 8O
That reminds me, I haven't read the Sunday funnies yet! :lol:
 
All this talk of rat-tails and squirrels has made me hungry......
 
OK! It seems that I need to reply to a few questions. 1) Yes, I will be able to pass more gas...my wife may not like that, but what the heck. 2). With regards to getting out the rat tail...can I do that in public, or should I keep that to the garage area?
 
I had to do patch work on the fuel tank on my Toyota, and filling it with water seemed to minimize fumes. Just don't let it sit there wet for long. To drain, I dumped the water, used a wet/dry to get what water was visibly left, then I put some gas in, sloshed the tank about, and used up the gas (a little dry-gas and I used it up in the mower). My clunky 'yota ran fine. Not sure if I'd do that my bike, though - that's a personal call. :wink:

The water method works. Used it to braze a gas tank once, guaranteed not to have an explosion.
 
Sorry, Hap, Earl is right.

A vaccuum is a universal motor. Meaning, it will run on AC or DC, and coincidentially has brushes. My dad has an older shop vac, and it sparks more than a cheap lighter. This goes for any vaccuum, shop vacs included. This also goes for drills, corded or battery. If you are worried about the sparks from your shop vac, you shouldnt use a drill, either. Earl is also right about about the forced air blower. The blower in your home funace is single-phase AC, and brushless. If you had a spare one of those laying around (like I do), you could make a manifold for it and use that.

Oh, P.S.: I am an Electrician.

That sounds rude! 8O
Just having a little fun. Not to be taken seriously. :)
If I was taken seriously, it would be the first time in my life! :lol:

Except Reliance Electric vacs from the early to mid 90's. They use brushless AC motors.

My deepest apologies to Mr. Call.
