Fuel Starvation?

: Here's the rub..... do those unnamed retailers cut the gasoline 50/50 with alcohol after it hits the truck? Nope...sometimes if they run out of "high test" the truck driver will drop a couple of dye tablets into the truck at the terminal so it'll convert white regular gas into colored "high test" before it gets to the station. Gas truck drivers pull up to the Hess dump...fill the truck and head out to refill the stations as quickly as possible, including the overpriced marinas! There's no "additives" in behind the seat to treat 70,000 gallons of regular! They'd have to tow two trailers, one with additives. You can't drop a pill into 70,000 gallons to change anything. What a hoot! The "Texaco" at Ashley Marina comes in on a tank truck from a truck company in N Charleston....not TEXACO. The driver just wants to get it over with so he can go home to see his kids and drink beer....like everybody else. |
