My new tire finally arrived; Going to get it now!

 

As in three quarters full? Lol and I would *hope* that this was a fluke and maybe just the gas pump you were using had too sensitive of a check valve that kept tripping the handle off. It happens once in a blue moon that a tank I know is empty will only allow 1 or 2 gallons so I have to play with the fuel pump handle to let it flow without tripping.

 

I always top off before I do DoorDash; I’ve had this truck more than 11 years and I’m proud to say I don’t think the low fuel light has ever come on!

 

When you say “Top off” , do you keep adding fuel AFTER the pump stops.
If so you really shouldn’t, as it can damage the Evap Canister.
This can lead to the pump clicking off prematurely.

As for the fuel gauge. I’d suspect the sending unit might be the cause.
It might have gotten hung up. Or it could be going bad.
I’d set the trip meter and monitor the distance you drive.
Fill up before you get to 300 miles. Just to be safe. Maybe even 200ish to be extra safe.
See what the fuel gauge does?

 

No, that was one of a few I used to have. Most of them were 3.0 V6 trucks but 1 was a 22RE and 1 was a 22RTE turbo truck. This was the turbo truck. I had to replace the turbo because it was cracked, but I honed out the new manifold and turbo housing and man, that truck would take off when it spooled up.

 

I have an ariens deluxe 24 and love it! Just cut through 16-18” with no problem or slowing down. Should be able to get a compact 24 for $800 if I remember correctly. However I will say I did some deep diving into comparisons and found it worth it to me to get the deluxe

 

My older (10yrs I think) 24" Craftsman has easily handled every storm with ease. Nothing fancy, manual controls and no headlight and highly maneuverable.



If I had to buy now, I'd go with a Toro.

 

Forgot to post these; Parking lot at work...

 

My mechanic had another customer’s Porsche wheels in the shop and I wanted to see how they looked...

 

New tire finally installed!

 

Took it to the carwash to get that blue stuff off...

 

Meeces love dog food. The place that the element sits is a wonderful little tight space that mice seem to love as storage.

OP's oven has an element that is accessed from the rear and you can't get to it from the inside of the oven.

 

Had a problem with the USB port where my iPod would charge but not play; Thought the extension cord was bad and ordered a new one on Amazon in anticipation of having to rip the dash apart for the umpteenth time this year...

Luckily, I told my neighbor of my plight and he recommended this stuff...




I sprayed it into the USB port while still in the AutoZone parking lot and got it working within minutes!

This 2002 Mustang belonged to an AutoZone employee; Note that it has wheels from a 1994-1998 model...

 

Very odd seeing SN95 wheels on it, that particular wheel was never very attractive. Possibly they just stuck them on for winter so the regular wheels don't get torn up in snow?

 

Owner said they were on there when he bought it; It’s a V6/slushbox, so it didn’t exactly have the really nice wheels...

 

Yeah that is really blah, can't stand Tan interior in anything either.

 

Had a really nice stereo...

 

I figured there had to be something positive with it, lol.

 

But that damage to the left rear would probably result in the car being totaled at this point...
