Yeeee-Haaaa!
The furnace is fixed.
If I only had a connection to get the parts I could have fixed it two days ago.
Igniter was cracked.
Oh well, State tax check came back today.......gotta spend it somewhere....

It felt like some of the old PD 680 solvent we used to use. To be on the safe side, I doubled the dose of additive. Couldn't tell any difference performance wise.
Could this be some of the "newer" super low sulfur fuel?
Time for breakfast.

Changes from season to season.
Summer it's a bright shade of antifreeze green, fall it is a dull old antifreeze green,
winter it is much duller, almost a brownish tan shade.
Been filling up at the station down the road from the usual, since they've had it .10 cents cheaper for the last couple of weeks, and it looks "dirtier", and smells more pungent.
I know they're moving more than the usual station, every time I drive by there's someone filling up at the green handled pump.
Haven't seen anyone at the usual for the same couple of weeks.
Can't feel any performance difference though.

Have a good day and behave.

I too am grateful to see these people welcomed home as Heroes, I can still recall the shameful acts people in this country exhibited back in the 60's and 70's to all our fine soldiers.We may have to start up a beer collection for you, as I know you are going to try an buy one for everyone of them.
