can't drop a pill into 70,000 gallons to change anything. What a hoot!

You wouldn't get far with a 420 000 pound trailer. The don't make 3
000 HP tractors, for openers. I seem to recall that 7 000 gallons is
the usual size for a fuel trailer.

We don't get fuel from tankers. We get it from underground tankage, bigger
than tankers.

All that nonsense aside, my point is the TRUCK DRIVER doesn't have 400
gallons of "additives" to put in the 7000 gallon truck, either.

That's all just bull****.

Tetra ethyl lead was used in quantities of up to six ml per gallon. A
driver could carry that much. There are undoubtly third world
********s with leaded gas
but I don't think drivers have ever handled the pure TEL The bush
pilots of the great white north used to add the stuff to cheap gas.
Little one gallon cans of the pure stuff.
