I just loce it anytime open flames and fuel supply work are mentioned in
the same time segment. I can just see someone under their car... "dang,
this plastic line won't come off... wait, I remember reading a guy
saying to use a cigarette lighter... bet a propane torch would work
better..."
What can I say? Last night I was pushing parts cars around with a plow
truck with no brakes... hope Marc's neck is ok...
