I went into the bathroom, then when I came back out and he was making a bunch of grunting sounds towards an employee at the airport. Next thing I know he's on the floor having a seizure, and getting CPR. Poor dude... I felt bad for him. Not much I could do - luckily there were medics not too far away.
Haven't experianced California, feel the same way about Florida though (terrible what they're going through right now).

Jeezz, what a thing to witness. Kudos to the medical staff FTW. Glad the guy made it through that.

Was going ask you how that worked out. Think it will keep it from cracking ?

I have 8+ gallons of good clean used motor oil.
The local Autopart's stores tanks have been full for months.
I actually put an ad on Facebook Marketplace to see if anyone needed it for their heater.
I had a couple people respond.
The 1st guy is supposed to pick it up today.

Too bad they can't burn antifreeze.

I have two at the bottom in the 250, one cracked across the bottom already. That one doesn't bother me. The other hasn't, worried about that one..it's new. Should do something about it before winter.

Ok, so maybe I shouldn't have bought a fancy scan tool. Maybe there's is bliss in ignorance, lol. Along with the CEL that pooped up the other day that was simply a Cyl4 misfire and a P0100, The scantool found faults in multiple systems, to include my GEM, Wipers, dash. lamps, door sensors, and ABS. This is going to be a fun couple weeks. All I wanted to fix were the things that left my stranded and the embarrassing exhaust leaks, lol. Today I'm just waiting on my exhaust to arrive and I might make some battery cables.
