[QUOTE="Tom Gaynor, post: 16799, member: 4034"] Perpetual motion is next on the agenda. I've nearly finished turning lead into gold, and my cure for the common cold. I rarely bother with fuel filters, if they are there I'll use them, if not, not. It hasn't been a great source of grief. I have done the "snorkel" trick before to increase reserve capacity. However I've cracked it on the Vin by fitting a five gallon tank, which means i can aim to fill up at 150 miles, and still have enough in hand to get to another filling station if the one I targeted has been closed. Or if it's the Sabbath, when many close anyway. . Bear in mind that in the Highlands filling stations can be 50 miles apart, which is about 40 miles further than the reserve on my steel tank would take me. [/QUOTE]
