Can anyone guess the type?

 

GE Sausagemaker 3000X?

 

jet

 

GE90-110b

Powers one of the Boeing 777 fleet. The fan diameter is about the same as the fuselage diameter of a Boeing 707, 727, 737 & 757.

And I guess Scott & Pete are also correct.

 

General Electric BFJE?

 

Bird eater 9000

 

767 engine. Not big enough to be the 787 engine and too big to be an f108.

 

It couldn't be an F108 because it has a cowling and pylon mount

Is it this one?



Actually, it seems small to have come from a triple-7. I was trying to compare the size of it to the tool cart just to the left. I've seen guys standing in the cowling and their heads just clear the spinner (or whatever you call it).

Squeeze, bang, blow!

 

MD11?

 

It is used on the Boeing 777. It's hard to tell the size without a humane standing next to it. It still looks huge and I'm around them all the time.

 

And where was it when the pump first clicked?

Proof that you can overfill the gas tank. The filler neck is not a gas tank, stop at the first click people!

 

Stfu

 

Would you trust them with a gas pump in their hands, being a witness to the herp-a-derp on here?

 

What does it hurt? I squeeze in a little extra all the time with no issues.

 

Charcoal no likey gas

 

I don't know what you mean by this?

 

- Putting extra in is likely to force gas back into the pumps evap system, costing you money in lost gas.
- The gas tank needs room for expansion. Not having this room can overload your car's evap system and degrade performance. Which wastes gas, and costs you money.
- And there's the chance of overflow or leakage from the filler tube (because it's not a gas tank, duh), which of course costs you money.

 

Oh yeah, and you can potentially damage the charcoal in the evap system of your car requiring an expensive replacement if it's bad enough to kill the performance.

 

Meh. I look at it this way. I don't live at the gas station, so I fill up and drive home, away, etc. It might be technically "full" for a very very short period of time.

I've never had so much in there that the filler tube is filled to the brim. I just squeeze some more in after the initial stop. The pumps I go to are either full blast or off, so it tends to stop before the tank is full.
