LOL!!!

That's a great story. If it wasn't a pressurized system, it might have worked.

I got started about 7:00am and was done by 12:00pm, including the run to the parts store to get a new starter solenoid. I cracked the cap on mine when I tightened the battery cable. :-(
I wanted to beat the heat. It was over 100* here yesterday.

After I was done, went on a drive and found a bunch of "free" firewood. Neighbors had cut down a couple of trees and left them on the curb with a sign on the rounds. Filled the bed and hauled it home. 55 years old, and still a work truck. :-)
