Yeah, I wouldn't do it on a vehicle still under warranty, either. Mine's about 10 years old. Maybe more. I forget. Anyway, if it goes tits-up, it's not that big of a loss.

have you used the caltex premium diesel that craig lowndes being flogging off jim?
I'm gonna guess that this has something to do with something that people know about and I don't...
Lowndes is an Aussie racing driver who does ads on TV...
And no, red, I tend to stick to BP for some reason...
Nurse, where the fuck's my cardigan?
And my gin!

No more of that gravity-fed business. Got motorized, thanks to an engineer friend who works for a water-purification company and stole a pump, filters and lines for me:

It's not even safe to drive a body powered by kimchee...

I'd send some, but the last time I tried that, the results weren't so favorable...

I keep bloody forgetting about this little experiment.
Mind you, you've been at it a while now so it's hardly that little now, is it?
If you're looking for suggestions, I say you should add more steampunk.

Well, I'm down to the last 600 or so liters I've stored up. Steampunk suggestions would be welcomed. Otherwise, it's just a repeating cycle of filtering, driving, filtering, etc etc...

You can get it in Wal-mart now.
Or you can get the real deal in specialty stores.
