that time of year
« on: March 30, 2013, 08:03:43 AM »
hi all

need to take action and aid the natural heat / separation of the ol veg oil in these continued climes of very cold minus weather, i havwe started tucking in my 60 ltr tubs for the day and night to help drop water, as this is whats making me stored oil mush and not thin enough to get going filtering...

Natural heat? I've forgotten what that stuff is. Still an Arctic wasteland up here.

Disco tyres aren't big enough, what you need is some big 20" rim tyres, you know, like the ones you see on every 17 year olds 1.0L Corsa.
