    If you remember, what did gas cost when you gradutaed high school?

    Less than 30 cents . Then when the gas wars would hit it would be less than 20 cents. Farmers would fill everything they could find that would hold gas. You could go on a date and drive around all night on $5.00.

    Getting ready to start a rebuild on my stock motor in my 1987 GN. Any suggestions on upgrades?

    Wrong time of year to start a rebuild. Unless you don't plan on driving the car for a few months. Nothing about a buick rebuild is quick or cheap.

    Noticed an oil puddle today...

    Snug up the valve covers a little. A new pair of gaskets would slow those drips down a lot.

    How Hot?

    Looks like you might be going for a new state record or something. The more you use the cheaper it gets, right? Less per unit. You should be getting that volume discount next month. You should ask that fella, the one that drives the armoured car,that comes by to pick up the check.:wink:

    How Hot?

    It's been a little warm out here in the corn field too. Pool water 95. 93 in the garage. Grass burned up,no need to mow. Com Ed says I've got the highest usage in a 1.2 mile radius of my place and We should cut back a little. I'll cut back in Jan & Feb maybe.

    Those Lunds fit terrible don't they. I tried triming the glass and re gluing the rubber back on. I butchered them up pretty good. Looked like crap. I got lucky and had one fly off somewhere and I threw the other one away.I'd never buy another set of theres.Good luck.

    water in gas - Treatment?

    If you have some methanol setting around you could put a quart or so in the gas tank. Should dry the gas out some. Heet brand fuel line anti freeze would work but they probably don't sell it out your way.It' just methanol.

    Octane Boosters?
