    WD-40 as diesel starting aid instead of ether

    Back when i worked on small engines we used wd-40 with the propane as the propellant and it worked fine especially on weed eaters and chain saws. Did not work at all when it was taken out. Used to find some of the good stuff at yard sales for a while but not any longer.

    Where does the white go when snow melts?

    Propane or Natural Gas? OT

    when the gas line was run down our road the hook up was $65, to run the 600 feet to our house was $500. I am glad we switched from propane to ng. We pay $.51 per therm. $4000 to hook up is silly.

    Rototiller Starting Problem

    Loosen the gas cap and try starting it. If it runs ok the vent in top of cap is stopped up. Run a little wire in the hole to clean it. Hope this helps.

    Old Thanks

    Started up my tractor this morning, ran about 50 feet and quit and wouldn"t restart. Remembered a bit of info you have told folks about a plugged gas cap. Cleaned by running a wire thru it and the old gal fired right up and away we went. Wanted to say thanks for helping me . Bill

    What did you get the Mrs. for X-mas?

    For our first Christmas I gave my wife a meat slicer. She said when she returned it she saw that it was the first things she saw when she went in the store. She still loves to tell that story after 49 years.
