Catch,

I've been thinking about playing with and trying to build the Hydrogen Generator, But I Wasn't sure if it would make any difference..

Natural Gas sounds like a good idea also? What did you have to swtich out?

Buddy


Check out extreme 4x4's TV show they converted a truck to veggie and the system they used was manufactured to prevent the incorrect shutdown...built in failsafe.


Would a transmission contoller help with mileage at all?

Here's an idea, just go to work for a company that gives you a free gas card........ :D

Works for me!

Are they hiring and do you actually have to do work to get this card? Can I just show up, get a card and then go load the dogs?

Or you could do like some of the contractors I know, write off your hunting mileage as a work expense. I need to get on that plan.

Now Nolte, you know writing off hunting mileage as a work expense would be a missapropriation of company assets.......something any CFO would frown on. Fortunately for me, I happen to be sleeping with the CFO of the company I work for and she gives me a free pass. So as long as I can stay on good terms with her (which often is not as easy as it sounds), I'm home free! :)

So yeah SECOND NATURE, try sleeping with the CFO of your company and perhaps you can get a free gas card too! :wink:

Kev if this the case, where the hell is my gas card for your company. :D

I might have to take this up with our union Rep HoundDawg.

Hey Nolte, you should check out that union rep of yours, he probably has your gas card and the company truck that you "earned" :wink: :lol:
